    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 6, 2024
     | 710 views

    You can not work for salvation. Righteousness is placed on your account when you are saved. We look at Abraham’s faith for his faith was reckoned as righteousness. How many ways to God are there? Without faith no one can please God. It is all of faith; nothing of works. Applications made.

    So, You Think You're Not A Pharisee?

    Contributed by Dan Funk on Aug 28, 2014
     | 5,125 views

    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
