Matthew:9:9-13
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And passing from there ,
Jesus saw a man named sitting at the tax office .
And He said to him ,
Follow Me .
And rising up ,
he followed Him .
*
And it happened as He reclined in the house ,
behold ,
many tax collectors and sinners having come ,
these were reclining with Jesus and His disciples .
*
And seeing ,
the Pharisees said to His disciples ,
Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners ?
*
But Jesus hearing ,
He said to them ,
The ones who are strong have no need of a physician ,
but the ones who are sick .
*
But going ,
learn what this is , "
I desire mercy and not sacrifice ."
For I did not come to call righteous ones ,
but sinners to repentance .
Hosea .
