Are You A Pharisee Christian?
Posted : 16 Dec, 2009 05:00 PM

In light of conversations I've read and participated in, and not just those relating to my posts, I was left wondering

what this topic of interest asks?





Are you a Pharisee Christian?



Have you ever been one?



Would you even care to know if you were?



Would you change upon the confession of being one?





I dug out of my writing archives a piece that I wrote on a similar subject, and this is what I interpreted through scripture and the leading of the Holy Spirit.



Characteristics of A Pharise Christian:



Judgemental

Narrowminded

Egotistical

Hypercritical

Condemning

Rigid

Religious

Arrogant

Self-Righteous

Dead in Spirit

Superior

Unmerciful

Unforgiving

Ignorant



Surely, this is not what an authentic Christ- follower looks like. However, many supposed Christians contain these very specific traits. Why is that?

Because of the "pride of life". Humans like to measures themselves against other humans without realizing that we're all the same. We have all sinned. We all deserve death.

I don't know,

Are you talking about the Christian Reformed church? Some Christians seem more legalistic depending on which People they are with.

I tend to be more of a Pharisee when it comes to my own grown children.

Will,



Most of those characteristics of a Pharisee I would agree with. My question is why would being Religious be considered a trait of a Pharisee?

Would you (or anyone else) explain that to me?



Thanks



Peace
