Part 8 | Matthew

June 23, 2024 • Pastor Kevin Timmons • Matthew 9:9–13

Jesus called a tax collector named Matthew to follow him. And he answered that call, leaving behind everything. Matthew would go on to write one of the four Gospels. But some Pharisees were not pleased when Jesus called a tax collector to be one of his disciples. Jesus, quoting the prophet Hosea, says to them, "Go and learn what this means: 'I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.'" Will they learn what he means? Will we?
