In Matthew 9:10 we see Jesus enjoying a banquet with many tax collectors and sinners. The Pharisees accuse Jesus of doing wrong by keeping company with such men. What does Jesus say? Listen as Pastor Matt shows how Jesus turns the tables on the Pharisees showing them that it is they who are in sin because of their calloused indifference to the pitiable state of their fellow man.

Matthew 9:12–13 “It is not those who are healthy who need a physician, but those who are sick. 13 “But go and learn what this means: ‘I DESIRE COMPASSION, AND NOT SACRIFICE,’ for I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”
