mercy
Matthew 9:9-13
- As Jesus went on from there, he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax collector's booth. "Follow me," he told him, and Matthew got up and followed him.
- While Jesus was having dinner at Matthew's house, many tax collectors and "sinners" came and ate with him and his disciples.
- When the Pharisees saw this, they asked his disciples, "Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and 'sinners'?"
- On hearing this, Jesus said, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.
- But go and learn what this means: 'I desire mercy, not sacrifice.' For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."
All glory to God!
