Sitting on the floor

Q: Why did John reacted so strongly towards the teachers of the Law/the Pharisees/the Sadcheaus?
Maybe this group of people have misled the Israelites, by preaching and practising the tradition of human. Their teaching bear no fruit that pleases God.
i think John must have want to see the fruit of repentance among God's people, knowing they were lost. John must have seen and got tired of seeing how the people offered sacrifices for their sins vainlessly, again and again. These people failed to choose repentance as their path to return back to God and obey His words.
Q: Have you repented? Are you still doing the sacrifices without a tinge of repentance in your thought? Have you been praying to ask God to forgive your sins but yet you still do not want to repent?
It takes a serious toll on my thought and heart at this late hour of the night. I shall keep pondering and reflect on all of how much I have wronged God. Gotta list all down and see what are the areas in my life that needed repentance.
I know one thing for sure: repentance actually will produce fruit.
