One day, Jesus told his disciples and the crowd this parable, "There were two men who were entering into the Holy-Temple simultaneously for praying. One was a religious leader; another man was a criminal."
"That religious leader gave out his prayer, saying, 'O, Heavenly-Father, please bless me! Because I have offered one-tenth of all I have during past period of time, and I have already obeyed all of Your commandments; most of all, I have never been like other people who are so dirty.'"
"That criminal was beating his chest, stamping his feet against the ground, shouting, 'O, LORD! O, LORD! Have a mercy on me, I am not worthy of being called the child of Yours!!'"
Then Jesus asked his disciples and the people surrounding him, "In Heavenly-GOD's eyes, which one is the true righteous man?"
After a short period of quitetude, Jesus spoke out the answer, saying, "Assuredly, I tell you the very truth----in Heavenly-GOD's eyes, this criminal indeed was the true righteous man. Because whoever exalts himself will be humbled; however, whoever humbles himself will be exalted!!"
