Jesus did not just hang around the sick but he had a message and plan for them to get well
Today is the opposite problem – association with all kinds of people; but without a message – bring the spirit without the truth
Sin must be dealt with at the heart level; not just outwardly like the Pharisees – could not be cured by rules or rituals
Living like Jesus (living a totally different life) will cause conflict and controversy
Living like Jesus entails:
- New priorities – with people who have different ones
- New loyalties – with people who have different ones
- Mission is to reachout and share with people why they need his message
- Associate with sinners but call them change
- Love unconditionally; Live radically – declare this is the way to live
