“Now the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, were listening to all these things and were scoffing at Him. And He said to them, “You are those who justify yourselves in the sight of men, but God knows your hearts; for that which is highly esteemed among men is detestable in the sight of God” (Luke 16:14-15).
As a cross-reference:
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and a contrite heart, O God, You will not despise” (Psalm 51:17).
And another cross-reference:
“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 5:3).
What do you think?
How do men think and behave in such a condition?
Who among men do you know with “a broken spirit and a broken and contrite heart?”
Are you one of them? |
