righteous and sinners
I was reading this scripture this morning:
"And as he sat at dinner in the house, many tax collectors and sinners came and were sitting with him and his disciples. When the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, "Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?" But when he heard this, he said, "Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. Go and learn what this means, 'I desire mercy, not sacrifice.' For I have come to call not the righteous but sinners."- Matthew 9:10-13
And it struck me that I spend my time calling the righteous and practicing sacrifice. Few in the church don't.
