Lucas

  • The Lost Sheep

  • |Lucas 15:1| Now all the tax collectors and sinners [including non-observant Jews] were coming near Jesus to listen to Him.

  • |Lucas 15:2| Both the Pharisees and the scribes began muttering and complaining, saying, "This man accepts and welcomes sinners and eats with them."

  • |Lucas 15:3| So He told them this parable:

  • |Lucas 15:4| "What man among you, if he has a hundred sheep and loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after the one which is lost, [searching] until he finds it?

  • |Lucas 15:5| And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing.

  • |Lucas 15:6| And when he gets home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, 'Rejoice with me, because I have found my lost sheep!'

  • |Lucas 15:7| I tell you, in the same way there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous people who have no need of repentance.
  • The Lost Coin

  • |Lucas 15:8| "Or what woman, if she has ten silver coins [each one equal to a day's wages] and loses one coin, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it?

  • |Lucas 15:9| And when she has found it, she calls together her [women] friends and neighbors, saying, 'Rejoice with me, because I found the lost coin!'

  • |Lucas 15:10| In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents [that is, changes his inner self—his old way of thinking, regrets past sins, lives his life in a way that proves repentance; and seeks God's purpose for his life]."
