Living for God

Jesus openly associated with the worst sinners of his time. He ate dinner with prostitutes, drunkards and tax collectors. Sharing a meal was very intimate business in that culture. And the religious people ridiculed Jesus for having anything to do with such outcasts.

Did Jesus bear guilt by association? Maybe the religious people thought he was condoning these sinful lifestyles by loving those who were shunned by most. He was accused of being a drinker and a womanizer.

We know that Jesus never committed any sin and he was never defiled in any way. He was simply showing the love of the Father to all people. So, do you want to be like those religious guys or do you want to be like Jesus?
