Reading the Bible, there were many differences between the Pharisees and Jesus. Jesus repeatedly pointed out some of these differences, and they are preached usually in sermons that have to do with Christianity not being a religion, but a relationship.
However, one main difference between Jesus and the Pharisees was compassion. Jesus was not out to simply condemn everyone that He came in contact with. He was sent to fulfill the Law and to seek and save what was lost, us. But He did not force us to believing and following Him, instead He showed the Ultimate Compassion by death by a Cross so that we may be forgiven of our sins and enter into eternity with Him. That is compassion. Have you showed compassion today?
