59 - The Surprising Twist of the Pharisee and Tax Collector


Listen Later

Jesus shocked His audience when He told a simple parable about a Pharisee and a tax collector. Imagine what they would have thought when they found out a despicable man was justified by God and their hero was not. Like Jesus' audience many people today don't really understand how a person is justified. In this episode, I discuss the parable of the Pharisee and Tax Collector. Join me and be encouraged by the grace God freely pours out on sinners.
