Episode Notes

The Pharisee And The Tax Collector
Luke 18:9-14

 

Your comfort zone isn’t where you go to grow, it’s where you go to become stagnant.

 

1.Recognize the (Dangers) of (Self-Righteousness).

 

Humility is the antidote to self-righteousness.

 

"For if anyone thinks he is something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself." – Galatians 6:3

 

2.Embrace the (Humility) of the (Tax Collector).

 

Humility is recognizing that everything good within us is a gift from God that can be used for His glory and purpose.

 

3.Acknowledge (Justification) is Given by (God’s Mercy).

 

As recipients of God's mercy, we are called to walk in righteousness, reflecting His love and grace to the world around us.

 

Final Thought:

Who are you in the story? Are you the Pharisee, or are you more like the Tax Collector?
