S3-58 SELF-RIGHTEOUSNESS EXAMINED

from MY GOSPEL @ Desmond R Singh · host Joe McCormick

Has Gospel Assembly, as a fellowship, become a 21st Century Pharisee movement? The question is blunt, but Jesus asked a similar sobering question about his return: "When the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?" (Luke 18:8) Our Lord spoke a parable (of the poor women petitioning the judge) "unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others." (v.9). We call ourselves the Body of Christ and take pride in our understanding of scripture. We believe that our doctrines are correct. Yet, there is a vast gulf between righteousness in God and self-righteousness.
