有一句話是可信可靠，是全然值得悅納的，就是：『基督耶穌到世界上來、是要拯救罪人』；其中的罪魁呢、我就是；

利未在自己家裏為耶穌辦了盛大的迎賓席；當時有一大羣的收稅人、和跟他們一同坐席的其他人們。法利賽人和他們的經學士就唧唧咕咕向耶穌的門徒議論說：『你們為甚麼跟收稅人和「罪人」一同喫喝呢？』耶穌回答他們說：『康健的沒有需要醫生，有病的才有需要。我來不是要召義人，乃是要召罪人悔改。』

耶穌在屋裏坐席，有許多收稅人和「罪人」來了，跟耶穌和他門徒一同坐席。法利賽人看見，就對耶穌的門徒說：『你們的先生為甚麼跟收稅人和「罪人」一同喫飯呢？』耶穌聽見就說：『強壯的不需要醫生，有病的才有需要。你們去研究研究「我喜愛憐憫，不喜愛祭祀」是甚麼意思。我來不是要召義人，乃是要召罪人。』

再者，惡人若回轉離開他所行的惡，而行公平正義的事，他就會將性命救活。

『但是你們以為怎樣？有一個人有兩個孩子；他走上前對老大說：「孩子，你去；你今天在葡萄園裏工作吧。」他回答說，「阿爸，我去」；卻沒有去。又走上前去對老二也這樣說；他回答說，「我不願意」；後來後悔，去了。這兩人中，誰實行了那父親的意旨呢？他們說：『那後者。』耶穌對他們說：「我實在告訴你們，收稅的人和妓女比你們先進上帝的國呢！

眾民和收稅人因受過約翰的洗、聽見了這話、就承認上帝為義。

律法溜了進來，使過犯增多；但罪在哪裏增多，恩典也就在哪裏格外地滿溢；

你就看吧，必有末後的成了首先的，首先的成了末後的。』
