Jesus show mercy to the humble but no mercy to the hypocrites. Is this issue not prominent in the church today? We are touched by persons who come humbly, even though they are imperfect. Yet...when a person comes proud, we are less merciful. Jesus sets a tone for humility in all of His teachings. One of the "common thread" messages of the Bible is God resists the proud. In Proverbs and in the Gospels. Here is the passage...
"For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted."
