Parable of a Pharisee and a Tax Collector

Parable of a Pharisee and a Tax Collector

Focus Verse:
James 4:10
Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.

Book of the Bible: Luke 18:9-14

Overview
Jesus told the parable of two men who went to pray at the temple. The Pharisee (who most people thought was good) had too much pride and just told God all of the good things he had done and how he was better than other people. A tax collector (who most people thought was bad) was humble and just asked God to have mercy on him because he was a sinner.
