(ESV)\n\n        The prayer of the week both confesses God's grace and mercy,\n   while confessing our unworthiness because of our sin and\n   rebellion.\n        Almighty and everlasting God, always more ready to hear\n        than we to pray and to give more than we either desire\n        or deserve, pour down upon us the abundance of Your\n        mercy, forgiving those things of which our conscience\n        is afraid and giving us those good things that we are\n        not worthy to ask, except through the merits and\n        mediation of Christ, our Lord; who lives and reigns\n        with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.\n\n\n        What we deserve is God's eternal wrath and punishment.  What\n   we receive is everything we need to support this body and life.\n   What we receive is the forgiveness of our sins for the sake of\n   the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.\n\n        The text this week, the parable of the Pharisee and the Tax\n   Collector, reinforces our understanding of God's great mercy.\n\n        [Jesus] also told this parable to some who trusted in\n        themselves that they were righteous, and treated others\n        with contempt: Two men went up into the temple to pray,\n        one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.\n\n\n        We will learn that God offers us the forgiveness of our\n   sins, not because of our works, but because of His love.  The\n   person who is holy in the sight of his neighbors may not be the\n   one who receives full pardon for his transgressions.\n\n        May our Lord grant us faith to trust in Him for our\n   salvation.  Amen.\n<\/code><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>August 17, 2026 Broadcast Forgiven &#8211; Part 1 Luke 18:9-10 08\/17\/2026 9 [Jesus] also told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and treated others &hellip; <a href=\"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/2026\/08\/25\/forgiven-part-1\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;Forgiven &#8211; Part 1&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5191","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-turn-your-radio-on-2026"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5191","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5191"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5191\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5192,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5191\/revisions\/5192"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5191"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5191"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5191"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
