Mark 2:16-17 -- On Publicans and Sinners

"And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners?
When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance."
Mark 2:16-17


Today, let's remember that everyone, no matter their career choices or sin choices or how different they are from us or whose goverment they represent... everyone, is in need of the healing power of Christ and his gospel. Let's look to him for help, and strengthen each other rather than tearing each other down with criticism and mockery.
