For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted

Luke 18:1-17

Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up.

I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?

I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”

 The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other people—robbers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.

But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner.

For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.

For the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.

Why?

Pray to the Lord never give up, for the Lord listens to our prayers and depends on our real needs give us.

Just obeying the Laws is not enough in the kingdom of the Lord, only humble men may enter the kingdom of God.

Jesus compares a Pharisee and a tax collector, not for their job but for their prayer, one feels good for his behavior, but the tax collector regrets and feels sorrow for he is a sinner. 

Don't be a cute man, just be friendly treat others, lovely, simple way to enjoy everything God gives us. This is the kingdom of the Lord I am living every day.

When the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?” Do we have faith until we see the Lord? Faith needs to be tested and endure many challenges, and then the faith may grow.

How?

The kingdom of the Lord is in my heart! confess I am sinner repented men can enter the kingdom of the Lord.
