  • So, You Think You're Not A Pharisee?

    Contributed by Dan Funk on Aug 28, 2014
     | 5,090 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

    The disciples were whipsawed into reality, that Christ was risen from death.

    Easter Tuesday One of the realities of life is that our little minds are quite capable of self-delusion, and on a grand scale.

    based on 5 ratings
     | 15,245 views

    I AM is a complete statement when made by God, but how about us? What do we add to that statement when describing ourselves? Is it accurate? Is it honest?

    “Lord, protect me from the things I want. If they're not in accordance with your will. ~Amen.”

    Lent5B You can tell that Jesus eat whole grains by his analogy of a kernel of wheat falling to the ground and dying to produce life.

I know that if we are to live any kind of “Righteous, Successful Christian Lives” we need to understand our “PURPOSE” in life, given by God! God ...read more
