13 Once again Jesus went out beside the lake. A large crowd came to him, and he began to teach them. 14 As he walked along, he saw Levi son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax collector’s booth. “Follow me,” Jesus told him, and Levi got up and followed him. 15 While Jesus was having dinner at Levi’s house, many tax collectors and sinners were eating with him and his disciples, for there were many who followed him.

16 When the teachers of the law who were Pharisees saw him eating with the sinners and tax collectors, they asked his disciples: “Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?”17 On hearing this, Jesus said to them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”

NEWOLD TOLERANCEEveryone’s belief is equal.
We must agree with the opinion
of others.
There is no objective truth.
Tolerance is the ultimate virtue.
Everyone has equal right to his
beliefs.
We don’t have to agree with the
opinion of others.
There is objective truth.
Truth is the ultimate virtue.
Be wise in the way you act
toward outsiders; make the
most of every opportunity.

“Wisdom is knowing what to do
for the glory of God when the
rule book runs out. It’s knowing
how to become all things to all
men without compromising
holiness and truth.”
John Piper
Do not CONFORM to the
pattern of this world, but be
TRANSFORMED by the
renewing of your
mind. Then you will be able
to test and approve what
God’s will is - his good,
pleasing and perfect will.
