Obeying Jesus


The Inner Ring Around Jesus || Luke 15:1-2

+ Like Jesus, we should welcome all kinds of people, even outcasts, who hunger for God’s truth.
+ The religious leaders in Jesus’ day grumbled about the outcasts He welcomed.

Takeaways

  • The wounds and pain of life often make us aware of our needs and can be the motivation to listen to seek God for help.

  • Let’s develop new eyes to see the lost as God sees them.  They belong to him and he welcomes them back. 

  • When people sense that we respect them, care about them even in their sin, without being judgmental, they will more likely want to get to know us, spend time with us, and care what we have to say. 

  • If you need a fresh start, a new beginning today, join the group around Jesus.  He welcomed sinners and outcasts,  and he will welcome you.
