  8. Luke 18:9-14 (NIV) 9  To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everybody else, Jesus told this parable: 10  "Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.

  9. Luke 18:9-14 (NIV) 11  The Pharisee stood up and prayed about himself: 'God, I thank you that I am not like other men--robbers, evildoers, adulterers--or even like this tax collector. 12  I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.'

  10. Luke 18:9-14 (NIV) 13  "But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, 'God, have mercy on me, a sinner.'

  11. Luke 18:9-14 (NIV) 14  "I tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."

  12. 3. Why are the poor in spiritblessed?

  13. Isaiah 61:1-3 (NIV) 1  The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners,

  14. Isaiah 61:1-3 (NIV) 2  to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn,

  15. Isaiah 61:1-3 (NIV) 3  and provide for those who grieve in Zion-- to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display of his splendor.
