I find it interesting in these threads that people like to throw out the term Pharisees.
Pharisees were Talmudic in the time of Jesus. The entire earth is full of those who still practice from the Talmud as Rabbinical Judaism is the dominant teaching. The author fails to mention another little known aspect of Jesus, and that being what he truly thought of the Talmudic Pharisees. So while you all slug it out on who the true Christian is ... What did Jesus REALLY say (not in article) about those who follow the Talmud?
.
Yeshua completely rejected all that the Pharisees said and did.
