Why do we justify ourselves?

 

 

Do we need to justify ourselves? (Lk. 10:29)

 

if we have the right biblical knowledge [Ex.: Jesus’ twofold command (v. 27)]

and do the right deed [Ex. Love our neighbors and be compassionate toward them (vv. 30-37)],

why do we need to justify ourselves?

 

What do we do with just the right knowledge and the lips that say the right word?

Jesus is saying to us, “Go and do likewise” (v. 37).
