How To Cure A Pharisee

"Pharasaism" is one of the most deadly sins because it's so hard to see in yourself. It's like carbon monoxide: deadly, but invisible. So what's the solution? In Luke 11:37-54, we hear some of the strongest words from Jesus in all of scripture as he rebukes the Pharisees for their pride and hypocrisy. We'll consider ourselves in light of these words ("am I a Pharisee?"), and then consider how the path to "curing" a hard-hearted Pharisee is not guilt or hard work - but grace. And grace is exactly what Jesus is happy to supply in abundance, even to Pharisees.
