Same message, Different Song
Read Matthew 3

“For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.’ 

The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and “sinners.” ’ But wisdom is proved right by her actions.” 

 Matthew 11:18,19

Chapter three of Matthew talks of Jesus being baptized by John the Baptist. John was in the desert of Judea calling,
“Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near.” 
                                                                Matthew 3:2.
People were coming to John confessing their sins and being baptized.
The religious leaders of his day were coming out and witnessing what was happening. John noted them and spoke against them. He called them to “Produce fruit in keeping with repentance.” Matthew 3:8.
Warned them not to rest on the fact they had Abraham as their father. But to turn to doing the work of God the way God had intended.
This was essentially the same message Jesus would preach. He called people everywhere to repentance for their sins. While at the same time speaking against the wrongs the religious leaders of His day were doing.
John writes, "For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him. Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. John 3:17,18
Matthew 23 states,
“But do not do what they(scribes and Pharisees) do, for they do not practice what they preach. They tie up heavy loads and put them on men’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them.” Matthew 23:3b,4
The difference was that John was “radical” he wore camel hair garments and ate locusts and honey.
Jesus on the other hand, was more “conventional”. He dressed normally and moved among people in the same way, anyone would.  Yet still He was condemned by the religious leaders of His day.
Jesus made it clear, “For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.’ The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and “sinners.” ’ But wisdom is proved right by her actions.”  Matthew 11:18,19.
Sometimes it doesn’t matter how you present things, people will not listen. People will only believe what they want to. All we can do is present the gospel of Christ as best as we can.
Once we have done it our obligation to God and to the person is complete.
Dear Christian have you completed your obligation to God?
Think about it.
