In our text, we see someone at the table who doesn’t seem to fit. But Jesus, invites us to the table! And He calls us to call others!
In this text we'll see how Jesus calls the outcast, Levi celebrating the change within his life and finally, we see Jesus confronting the critics.
Jesus called a tax collector to follow Him. He called a traitor to Him, who exploited His family and the Jewish people. To the Jewish community, Levi wasn’t just a sinner, he was the worst kind of sinner. Jesus calls the worst of us, despised, and ostracized. Jesus calls Him to a new life, to abandon his sinful ways. He was changed from this moment onward! Permanently.
Levi also celebrates his transformation. He threw a party! Interacting with Jesus should lead us to celebrate. To come to joy! Levi rejoices, calls together his friends. Who does he invite? Fellow tax collectors. He had no other community. The only people he had to invite were other tax collectors. So he brings them. This feast is a declaration of a spread of Gods faith. This new freedom, he takes it and shares it for the one who frees him, and with those who shared in his bondage. Are we reflecting the light Jesus shows us, or are we veiling our faith to those who need it just as much as we do?
But the Pharisees see this teacher or prophet choose to associate with tax collectors! How can this be? Choosing to eat with sinners was seen as accepting their way of life. The Pharisees, instead of seeing the law was about relationship, instead became rigid and hardened their hearts. They didn’t see that Jesus doesn’t become unclean by sitting with the unclean. Instead He makes the unclean clean by coming into contact with them. And Jesus’ metaphor he tells the Pharisees is something they would understand. A doctor’s place is with the sick, not with the healthy.
The Pharisees see themselves as well, but they are blind to their own sickness, and need of a savior.

Good morning Family 💜🙏 Love you all😍
We miss you sis! Hope to see live and in person soon!!!!
God is pro choice and pro-life people are NOT for life, they are for CONTROL. Trump was the false prophet, the lawless one that lead many astray. James 5:2 All the wealth stored up will be used as evidence against rich people to burn them!! A camel can NOT go through the eye of a needle. Anyone that sits on billions of dollars and watches people starve, suffer, and be raped and homeless in the world but chooses to do nothing about it is NOT a Christian. GET AWAY FROM WOLVES AND FALSE TEACHERS AND GET OUT OF THE FAKE CHURCHES OR YOU ARE GOING TO DIE WITH THEM AND THEIR LIES. JUDGEMENT IS FALLING. I am Elijah of Malachi 4:5-6 and fireballs are going to hit the fake churches. GET OUT AND STAY OUT. This is not a joke. If you care anything about celebrity wolves, you will do everything you can to reach them and tell them theres not much time left for them to get on the right side. Even Oprah, she might spend millions on helping people but if you are still sitting on billions, that doesn't even qualify for lukewam and she has already been spit out. Anyone teaching the monetary tithing LIE or collecting money for ministering in any way is now in THE GREAT TRIBULATION and they will begin to suffer until they repent or it's too late and they die. It's their choice. All worship groups, bookwriters, and every fake minister KNOWS selling anything using the gospel is against the Bible and evil. Do you really comprehend that they are INTENTIONALLY LYING to people? Malachi 2 proves Malachi 3:8-12 is prophetic instruction for the thieving church leaders to repent and bring back the money they were never supposed to take and God will end Covid. Every single minister on television has known this since August of 2020 but they LOVE MONEY so much, they INTENTIONALLY CHOSE TO KILL everyone with Covid instead of bringing it back! WOW! Are you awake yet? Being awake is a GOOD thing, don't listen to demon hybrids that tell you otherwise. And the Bible says God prefers for people to be in LGBT relationships in Mathew 19:12 FOR THE SAKE OF THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN. Male or female is determined by gender located in the brain, not sex characteristics. I am Elijah of Malachi 4:5-6 so any discrepancies in the bible are ultimately decided by me....
