In Secret? Matthew 26:3-5
3 "Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas, 4 And consulted that they might take Jesus by subtilty, and kill him. 5 But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar among the people." |
An old friend of mine, a strong individualist, was fond of saying that the only thing ever accomplished by a committee was a lynching. I guess he would have upset a lot of my fellow Baptists, but it is amazing how quickly a group of people can become polarized around their own agenda rather than the will of God. Once this happens they are unable to see the flaws in their own thinking and they seem to be uncontrollably moved along by the agenda itself, often without regard for anyone who might get in their way.
