”And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them.” | Luke 15: 2

“This Man receiveth sinners” – I love those four words.

What hope!

What joy for a soul who is drowning in his or her own sin, with no possible way of pulling himself or herself out.

“This Man” – the God-Man, the Almighty who manifested Himself in the flesh, the All Powerful One, the Sovereign who is able to do what He pleases with whom He pleases, the One who is able to save to the uttermost.

“Receiveth” – In His graciousness and His mercy, He receives, and receives, and receives, promising to never cast out.

“Sinners” – No matter how wretched. No matter how weak.

No matter how insufficient and unworthy – Christ shed His blood to put away ALL of the sin of His people.

And in His blood, the glorious message of hope goes out to every soul who is truly in need: “This Man receiveth sinners!”

If you are labored and heavy laden over your sin, come to Him.

He will give you rest.
