Our Lord Jesus Christ is the Man of the
people and friend of all. He is the Saviour of Heaven and earth. The Master of
the universe. When he was in the world he related freely with everybody, both
great and small; saints and sinners. While he was relating freely with tax
collectors and sinners people were complaining. In the gospel of Luke 7:31-35 Jesus said, “To what then
shall I compare the men of this generation, and what are they like? They are
like children sitting in the market place and calling to one another, ‘We piped
to you, and you did not dance; we wailed, and you did not weep.’ For John the
Baptist has come eating no bread and drinking no wine; and you say, ‘He has a
demon.’ The Son of man has come eating and drinking; and you say, ‘Behold, a
glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ Yet wisdom is
justified by all her children.” Indeed, our Lord Jesus Christ is the friend of
tax collectors and sinners. He even told his followers that he came for the
sick and sinners. they are the ones that need him most. He is indeed, the Man
of the people and the Saviour of all. To him be glory and praise both now and
forevermore - Amen!
