We are in the gleaning times now, very few will hear and respond to the gospel, so many are hearing a false gospel of salvation without confession of sinfulness. This is the reason we have so many fights among Christians, the born again believers tell the truth and the pretenders fight against it.
The born again believers know their own need for Christ and inability to be good without Him. They have authentic humility based on Who Christ is.
The pretender believes they are so wonderful, without flaws that God wants them because of their goodness. They admit nothing, love themselves and judge others harshly.
Here is what God says about each kind of person;
Luke 18:9-14 "9 And He also told this parable to some people who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and viewed others with contempt:
10 “Two men went up into the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.
11 The Pharisee stood and was praying this to himself: ‘God, I thank You that I am not like other people: swindlers, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax collector.
12 I fast twice a week; I pay tithes of all that I get.’
13 But the tax collector, standing some distance away, was even unwilling to lift up his eyes to heaven, but was beating his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, the sinner!’
14 I tell you, this man went to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted.”"
