    A Pharisee and a tax-collector bump into eachother at the temple. This looks like a sitcom! ...

    “Jesus told them another joke”, we are told, “and He told this one to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and looked down on others.’ Now, I suspect that your translation probably says ‘parable’ rather than ‘joke’, but I think ‘joke’ is actually a very good translation. We ...read more

    Humility Is a Choice. The Pharisee’s lack of humility and abundance of pride was his problem.

    DEVELOPING BIBLICAL HUMILITY: 1. Do not point a finger to others. EXPLANATION: - We are saved by God's atonement and mercy, not by our righteous deeds. - Righteousness is NOT a human achievement instead of a gift of God’s grace. Luke 18:9 (PHILLIPS) “Then He gave this ...read more

    Eighth in this series. The Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector reveals that I either come to church to impress God or to be impressed by God.

    Note: Since this message was presented in the form of a table that summarized the two reasons for coming to church some formatting may not look right. Let me begin with a question this morning. I don’t want to embarrass anyone, so I’m not going to ask you for a show of hands or ask you ...read more

    A message dealing with the issue of hypocrisy.

    Snapchat. I don’t know much about Snapchat except what I read about it on the web. I don’t have it on my phone because, frankly, I don’t see the need for an app on my phone that supposedly lets me take a photo or video, send it to someone, and as soon as it’s been viewed, is ...read more

    So, You Think You're Not A Pharisee?

     | 5,057 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

    Jesus gives us a challenge He gave about the Pharisees. He wants us to show mercy and love to those who need salvation, not just go through the motions of our own religious beliefs

    How to Separate Ourselves From the Sins of the Pharisees Jesus said to them, "Be careful and on your guard against the leaven (teaching, corruption, hypocrisy) of the Pharisees and Saducees."

    The Pharisee thought Jesus was clueless about who was at the dinner table. It was the pharisee what was clueless.

    I have been reading my Bible through again this year. When I came to the passage of scriptures about the Old Testament Tabernacle, I became intrigued with this thought, "God wants to have a romantic dinner with us." He has a table (Shew Bread) prepared for us in the Holy Place. It even has the ...read more

    A reflection on pride and humility based on the parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector

    I love Bible stories, and I believe many of us who grew up in the faith find them to be a beautiful source of teachings that still resonate with us today. Stories like David and Goliath, Elijah, Joseph, Moses leading the Israelites in the desert, and Noah's ark have been a constant companion in our ...read more
