The Pharisee In Us All

About the Book

In the Pharisee In Us All, author Ronald N. Hesser presents an in depth research of the character traits of Pharisees.  They challenged Jesus’ ministry on many occasions, while at other times He sought them out for public debate and criticism. Descriptions of these incidents and dialogue compose over one third of the Gospels.  Because Jesus had not yet been able to establish His New Covenant Church, He used the errors of the Pharisees to indirectly point out the character He wanted demonstrated in a New Covenant believer.  Dr. Hesser examines seventeen areas in Scripture the Pharisees failed in, and he then suggests a positive trait in the Word for Christians to exemplify instead.  This book is a must for all Christians, but will especially enlighten leaders in the Body of Christ.
