• Dumbrell preaches on the parable of the Tax Collector and the Pharisee from Luke 18: 9-14. For the self-exultant Pharisee, his prayer is one of prideful reinforcement of his present standards with no impact on his life. For the humble Tax Collector, the prayer represents one of desperation and effectuates great change within his life. The Pharisee prays ostentatiously, commending himself to God in triumphant exclamation, with no note of confession, intercession, or petition. He seeks to justify himself before God through his religious actions and comparison with others. The Tax Collector's prayer is short, penitent, and humble in form and content. He throws himself entirely upon the mercy of God.
