Introduction: I read about a lady who had a hearing problem. One day she and her husband were driving from Tennessee to Little ...read more

    9. To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everybody else, Jesus told this parable: 10. "Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11. The Pharisee stood up and prayed about himself: God, I thank you that I am not like ...read more
