Lesson 4206

 (Lesson 4206)(07-28-23) Mark 2:15-17

    “And it came to pass, that, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples: for there were many, and they followed him. And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners? When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”

    In today’s quote, when Jesus was confronted by the Scribes and Pharisees, He stated that He associated with sinners because they are whom He came to save. Praise God for His amazing saving grace!~
