Luke 5:30-32

But the Pharisees and their scribes complained to Jesus’ disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?” Jesus answered, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”

Temptations to sin are sure to come. But woe to him by whom they come. It would be better for him that a stone were tied about his neck and he were cast into the sea than that he should cause one of these little ones to sin. What is the Kingdom of God like? It is like this. A man takes a grain of mustard seed and plants it in his field. The plant grows and becomes a tree, and the birds make their nests in its branches. I'm not sure what he's talking about. Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and other outcasts? Outcasts?! People who are well do not need a doctor, but only those who are sick. I have not come to call respectable people to repent, but outcasts.
