Eleventh Sunday after Trinity—Justified by God’s Mercy, Not by Our Works
This sermon from St. Thomas Evangelical Lutheran Church (UAC) in Magnolia, Texas, explores Jesus’ parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector (Luke 18:9–14). The Pharisee boasts in his outward righteousness, while the tax collector beats his breast and pleads for mercy. We face the same deceptions today—trusting in works or abusing grace. But God justifies the sinner through Christ alone, our propitiation (Hebrews 2:17), who delivers us from this body of death (Romans 7:24–25).
