Day 11 - Friend of Sinners

The promise of the gospel—and the message of the whole Bible—is that in Jesus Christ, we are given a friend who will always enjoy rather than refuse our presence.

"The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, 'Look at him! A glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!' Yet wisdom is justified by her deeds." —Matthew 11:19 (ESV)

Dane Ortlund is the author of Gentle and Lowly: The Heart of Christ for Sinners and Sufferers.
