Luke 15:1 Then all the tax collectors and the sinners drew near to Him to hear Him.
Can you imagine the uproar at this first sight? Here is Jesus, the Messiah who came for the people of Israel, allowing all the people they rejected to come to Him!
We get jealous or upset when our enemies come to be with our friends just as the people of Israel were getting upset here… why?
Because we judge other people and think they are not worthy of our love and support!
Jesus was perfectly right to judge, but took time for people to be given a chance before He would judge. How much time do we take before judging?
