Mark 3:6

There is right and there is wrong but compassion and grace lie between them. We would like the world to be black or white, it makes life simple and uncomplicated, but the truth is it is made up of shades of gray. If we look closely at the Bible it shows us that God in His infinite wisdom knew this and saved us anyway. I love Him. 

The letter of the Law kills but Jesus gives it life.

The Herodians were a political party who generally supported Herod Antipas’ regime. NKJ Bible.

The Pharisees were religious experts who should have led the people in righteousness. Instead, they plotted Jesus’ death with the Herodians, their bitter enemies. They were willing to set aside differences to destroy a common foe. The Herodians were Jews who supported Rome and the Herods in particular. Herod Antipas, a son of Herod the Great, ruled Galilee during the same time that Pilate served as Roman governor over Judea and Samaria. The NKJ Bible.

Mark 3:6 (NKJV)

Then the Pharisees went out and immediately plotted with the Herodians against Him, how they might destroy Him.
