The F.O.G
Jesus seized this teaching moment: "Stay alert! Guard yourselves against the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod." His warning spoke of how religious legalism and worldly power can slowly corrupt and even limit pure faith.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
and he was charging them, saying, ‘Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod,’
