Full of Greed Inside

Luke 11:37-42 KJV 

37 And as he spake, a certain Pharisee besought him to dine with him: and he went in, and sat down to meat. 38 And when the Pharisee saw [it], he marvelled that he had not first washed before dinner. 39 And the Lord said unto him, Now do ye Pharisees make clean the outside of the cup and the platter; but your inward part is full of ravening and wickedness. 40 [Ye] fools, did not he that made that which is without make that which is within also? 41 But rather give alms of such things as ye have; and, behold, all things are clean unto you. 42 But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

OBSERVATION QUESTIONS
1) Who asked Jesus to dine with him? (v.37)
2) Why did he marvel about our Lord? (v.38)
3) What did Jesus say to him? (v.39-42)

APPLICATION QUESTIONS
4) Has anyone ever questionned your salvation or sancification because of something your did, or did not do? If so, please desccribe one such time and your response, if any.

LIFE LESSONS
5) The religious are fixated on externals, but our Lord weighs the motives of our hearts.
