So, You Think You're Not A Pharisee?

Contributed by Dan Funk on Aug 28, 2014

Christ directed the Parable of the Pharisee and the Publican Praying in the Temple to those who trusted in their own righteousness. We are more prone to trust in our own righteousness than we might think. This self-trust can keep us from being merciful.

Over the years, we have all heard preachers address the parable of the Pharisee and the Publican praying in the Temple. “The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. I fast ...read more

Grace For The Graceful

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 25, 2019

The grace of God continues for those who are already demonstrating the fruits of grace in their life.

GRACE FOR THE GRACEFUL. Acts 9:36-43. I am sometimes at pains to emphasise how God’s grace abounds for sinners (cf.

True Freedom Series

Contributed by Ken Henson on Sep 28, 2016

What Paul describes here definitely applies to us. Jesus has taken many captives, literally, He lead captivity captive.
