leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform. I get it. It's annoying. Everybody

asks, but I'm going to tell you why. When you give us a positive review, what that does is it

triggers the algorithm so that our podcast shows up on more people's news feeds. You and I both know

that this ministry is willing to talk about things that most ministries aren't.

We need this content for the glory of God to reach more people's ears.

You're doing a great job.

We've got several hundred reviews so far, but we like to reach a thousand reviews by the end

of this year, the year of our Lord 2024.

If you haven't left a review yet, take a moment

and help us achieve our goal. His final woe to the scribes and Pharisees is that they erect

elaborate monuments for the prophets and say, if they had been around in our father's days,

we would not have killed them. There's a great application today within the church.

Many of the very same men who hold conferences and publish books honoring the reformers

will go out of their way to destroy anyone who holds the same political and cultural views.

Men who honor Calvin and Luther, who put busts of them in their offices,

and proudly display their every word

that they ever wrote on their bookshelves

will docks and drive men out of their churches

who believed the same things Calvin and Luther did.

If we were around in the Reformation,

we wouldn't have burned the reformers at the stake. All right. So this, I think, pairs up nicely with one of the chief texts that we will be using from the Gospel of Matthew for this particular episode, which is, what's the text? The reference?

The reference is, yeah, Matthew chapter 23.
