Luke 18.9-14
Luke gives us life lessons as he recounts stories that Jesus told. In this case he is particularly poignant. He presents two men who go to the temple to pray and Luke tells us that the reason for the story is to warn us against self-righteousness and a smug approach to religion. He comes again to his favourite story theme of humility. Should we have some kind of righteousness scan before we are allowed to board for worship?
