Posture Matters - Luke 18:9-14
from Valley Church Hosted by Valley Church
Sunday, August 9, 2026 In this message from Luke 18:9–14, Pastor Jacob walks through Jesus’s parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector to show why our posture before God matters. The Pharisee approaches God with pride, comparison, and confidence in his own works, while the tax collector comes humbly, confessing his sin and asking for mercy. The message reminds us that no amount of good works can make us right with God. Pastor Jacob then points to Jesus, the Exalted One who humbled Himself for sinners, paid the debt of sin at the cross, and rose again. The message closes with an invitation to lay down pride, come to Jesus in repentance and faith, and receive the mercy and forgiveness only He can give.
