fardell24Luke 15
Tax Collectors and other 'sinners' were congregating around Jesus.
The Parables
There is an emotional rollercoaster when something is lost and then found.
Something is lost - Dispair
Something is found - Joy and Elation
There is celebration in Heaven for everyone who is Saved.
We need to communicate with the lost people, the lost generation
The Prodigal Son's hostile older brother
- He had not taken the opportunity to get to know his father.
Jesus is saying that the religious leaders need to connect with the Tax Collectors and other 'sinners'.
