Jesus, a Friend of Sinners
Luke 7:24-34
“For John the Baptist has come eating no bread and drinking no wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon’; the Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Look, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’“ Luke 7:33-34 NRSV
God chooses the messenger. Carry the message despite those who refuse to welcome the messenger.
