The Pharisee And Publican

The Pharisee And Publican is a religious book written by John Bunyan. It is a short story that follows two characters, a Pharisee and a Publican, who both go to the temple to pray. The Pharisee is full of pride and self-righteousness, boasting about his good deeds and thanking God that he is not like other sinners. In contrast, the Publican is humble and contrite, acknowledging his sins and asking God for mercy.Through this story, Bunyan explores the themes of pride, humility, and repentance. He highlights the dangers of self-righteousness and the importance of recognizing our own faults and asking for forgiveness. The book also emphasizes the power of prayer and the need to approach God with a humble and repentant heart.Overall, The Pharisee And Publican is a thought-provoking and inspiring read that encourages readers to examine their own attitudes and actions towards God and others.Men must not be judged, or justified, according to what themselves do think, but according to the verdict and sentence that cometh out of the mouth of God about them. Now, the sentence of God is, ""All have sinned: "" ""There is none righteous, no, not one;"" Rom. iii. It is no matter, then, what the Pharisee did think of himself.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
