Total Rejection and Total Judgment

How will you respond to Jesus? At the heart of this passage from Matthew 11 Jesus rebukes the people for their unbelief. The people had rejected John and said "he has a demon", and then rejected Jesus calling Him, "A glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!". Those who had interacted with Jesus had their reasons for not following Him, but as we will see, those reasons will not hold up on the day of Judgment. While there is breath in your lungs you have the opportunity to respond in repentance and turn to Jesus, but as is warned here, woe to those who do not repent. "He who has ears to hear, let him hear." - Matthew 11:15
