Our guest preacher Angus takes us through Luke 18:9-14, guided by this passage he reminds us that it is wrong to assess our spiritual state by comparing ourselves with other people. When it comes to our righteousness, the standard is God, not those around us. This should bring us to humility and gratitude: humility because we will never reach God’s standard of righteousness and gratitude because God provides a way through Jesus Christ for us to boldly approach His throne and be welcomed into His presence.
