  9. The Question Is ???? What is Our Attitude Toward People Who Do Not Know Jesus?

  10. What do we think about: The Drunk The Drug User The Person That Smells Of Body Odor The Kid That Comes From A Messed Up Home

  11. What do you think when: Someone Parks In Your Spot Someone Sits In Your Pew They Don‘t Seam to Fit In Or They Have Some Sort Of A “Reputation”

  12. Or They Are Just Different

  13. Jesus Took Time For: The Publicans - Tax Collectors who worked for and represented the Hated Roman Government Jesus Took Time For: Sinners - The Heathen, Wicked, and Ungodly Why Would Jesus Take Time For The Lost?

  14. Could It Be That Jesus Loves Them And Wants them To Be Saved?

  15. (John 3:16) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:17) For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

  16. Jesus Loves Everyone And Wants To Save Us All

  17. (Luke 15:2) And the Pharisees and scribesmurmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them. (Mark 2:16) And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners? (Luke 5:30) But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners?

  18. Giving Examples Jesus Taught (Luke 15:4) What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it? (Luke 15:8) Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she find it?

  19. If A Shepherd Would care that much about a missing sheep If A Woman Would care that much about missing silver How Much More Does Our Saviour Care About A Lost Soul

  20. Jesus Taught When The Missing Sheep Was Found (Luke 15:5) And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing. (Luke 15:6) And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost. (Luke 15:7) I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.

  21. Jesus Taught When The Missing Silver Was Found (Luke 15:9) And when she hath found it, she calleth her friends and her neighbours together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I had lost. (Luke 15:10) Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.

  22. (Luke 15:7) … joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, ... (Luke 15:10) … there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth. Should We Not Also Rejoice Over Every Sinner That Comes To Church

  23. Even If They Are Not Just Like Us

  24. Sin Is Not Right Sin Is Not Pleasing To God Sinners Will Not Be In Heaven (Romans 6:23) For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

  25. Sinners Will Be Judged (Revelation 20:15) And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. (Revelation 21:8) But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

  26. Yet If Jesus With The Greatest Of Love Offers Salvation To Sinners (Romans 5:8) But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Should We Not Also Love Them And Want To See Them Saved

  27. Jesus Continuing To Teach (Luke 15:11) And he (Jesus) said, A certain man had two sons: Elder Son Father Younger Son

  28. Father Younger Son (Luke 15:12) And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living.

  29. Younger Son (Luke 15:13) And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.

  30. This Boy By His Own Choices Made A Mess Of His Life

  31. Younger Son (Luke 15:17) And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!

  32. Younger Son Father (Luke 15:20) And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.

  33. Younger Son Father (Luke 15:22) But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet:

  34. Younger Son Father The Father Showed His Son Great Love The Father Shows To Us An Example Of Jesus

  35. Elder Son He Had The Pharisee Attitude He murmured, (Luke 15:28) And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and intreated him.

  36. The Father Explained To The Elder Son His Treatment Of The Younger Son (Luke 15:32) It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found. The Rejoicing Of The Father Was In The Return Of His Son

  40. (Genesis 1:1) In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. (Genesis 1:27) So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
