When we talk about Pharisees, we can often think that compromise is ok, for the sake of humility. It isn’t!

Pharisees see Christianity primarily as a moral code. It’s so much more!

Faithful Christians, like Pharisees, sometimes find themselves looking down on others. We shouldn’t!

One of the biggest mistakes Pharisees make is becoming self=righteous.

Many church goers are faithful, but perhaps are starting to look more like Pharisees than they’d wish to admit

Running on faith means seeing blessings to be grateful for, rather than burdens to complain about.

Sometimes our situations drain us, and we need to courageously make a change. Don’t keep suffering when you can make a change and find healing.

Running on faith means filling up on the promises of God.

Running on faith means stopping long enough to fill up on God.

Many of us run on empty, when we could be running on faith.

Paul persevered to the end hoping for a crown of righteousness. What a day it will be when we receive a crown!

The apostle Paul was a fighter right to the end. Stand up and fight today – with the Spirit in you, you have more power than you know.

Paul knew which people to avoid and which people to embrace. Is was the right people in his life that helped him live so effectively for God.

Paul pleads with Timothy to preach the whole truth – even the hard bits. Are you seeking out teachings that challenge you with the whole truth, or are you just looking for the easy stuff?

Did Paul distort the gospel of Jesus into something that Jesus himself would not approve of? Some people think so. I don’t!

David claims that God is the one who preserves people (and animals!) Are we looking to Him, or something else, to sustain us?

Is God just? David claims that He is. Let’s see how Jesus’ death on the cross allows both forgiveness and justice.

David proclaims God’s righteousness. We too can be righteous – by faith.

It’s not only God’s love that is immeasurable, but God’s faithfulness too, as David proclaims in Psalm 36.

David says that God’s love is measureless and priceless. Do you know this love?
