HOW TO IDENTIFY PHARISEES IN YOUR CHURCH 1. They go to work early but come to church late. 2. They beg their boss when they err but threaten to leave church whenever there is a misunderstanding. 3. They work hard to be promoted at work but treat the work of God with levity. 4. They pay all their dues in the workplace but refuse to pay tithe in the church. 5. They buy costly things for their boss to get favour but can't even buy airtime for their pastor. 6. When they are not going to be in the office, they take permission ahead from their superior; but expect pastor and elders to pay them visits when they miss church without notice. 7. They fear and respect their boss than their pastor and even sometimes more than God. 8. When they are sick they manage to go to work but they cannot manage to come to the church. 9. They take official query serious but handle divine rebuke with disdain. 10. They tolerate their colleagues in the workplace but cannot tolerate the brethren. 11. They turn off their phones at workplace, but use calls to distract other worshippers in Church. 12. They can work overtime in the office but get offended at the pastor if he's not closing at the stipulated time. https://www.naij.com/1110465-top-12-ways-identify-pharisees-church.html Question: Is there anyone in your church? . |

Why not allow God to be the JUDGE? "Work out YOUR (not HIS/HER/THEIR) salvation with fear & trembling." you are in church to worship and serve God, not to observe your brethren. Be Guided. |

ADEWUMIMichael:You missed everything. A Pharisee is one who displays an outward appearance of being religious. So, he would come to church early even though his heart is far away from church. He will love his pastor even more than God. When they are sick, they will still come to church to make the pastor praise them. So, with the few corrections I have made, edit your post. |
