The parable of the tax collector and the Pharisee is found in the Gospel of Luke in chapter 18 in lines 9-14 and teaches mainly about humble prayer and the avoidance of pride.
How God saves him who is aware of his sin and invokes His mercy.
And that he who considers himself better than others is not saved and for this reason he considers God obliged to save him.
God is not obliged to save one who does not realize that he needs salvation.
Repentance, however, is the next Sunday plus God, in the parable of the prodigal son or the merciful Father.
Repentance is the second step, if there is humiliation. The proud man from his selfishness does not find his sins, but the humble one does not see the time to get rid of them!

Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth: 6. And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.

“Sometimes in the affliction of your soul you wish to die. It is easy to die, and does not take long; but are you prepared for death? Remember that after death the Judgment of your whole life will follow. You are not prepared for death, and if it were to come to you, you would shudder all over. Therefore do not waste words in vain. Do not say: ‘It is better for me to die,’ but say rather, ‘How can I prepare for death in a Christian manner?’ By means of faith, by means of good works, and by bravely bearing the miseries and sorrows that happen to you, so as to be able to meet death fearlessly, peacefully, and without shame, not as a rigorous law of nature, but as a fatherly call of the eternal, heavenly, holy, and blessed Father unto the everlasting kingdom.” —St. John of Kronstadt
