Matthew 16:1-4 and 12 “The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven. He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red. And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowering. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?

It is a pity that so many people know so much about so many things but miss knowing the most important thing that there is to know. Much of what many people think they know is tainted by the leaven of this world. It is a pity that so many people “know” so much that is not true. No matter what else a person knows, if he does not know Jesus as his Savior, he is an ignoramus on the most important subject of all!
