In this sermon, Rev. Dan Quakkelaar looks at Matthew 9:9-13. After calling Matthew to follow him, the Pharisees catch Jesus reclining with Matthew’s friends – sinners and agents of Herod Antipas’ tax collection force. They question the propriety of Jesus’ association with those who drag down the whole culture of Israel. But Jesus, setting the pattern of the gospel of grace for us, questions the pharisaical avoidance of these fallen Israelites, and condemns their lack of mercy.
