All right, turn to Luke 15 and John 8.

Luke chapter 15 and put a marker at John 8

because we'll need to turn to a few passages actually before we get to John 8.

We'll start at Luke 15 and then we'll get to John Chapter 8.

Now the title of our series is Let's Go, And we're talking about going to all the world,

but to our neighbors first, to our friends first,

the people we work with first, and taking the gospel.

The title of this week's series is Let's Be Friends.

Now it's something that I used to hear a lot in high school from girls.

But I've gotten over that. But anyway, let's be friends. Let's just be friends.

Okay. But because of this title, I really felt like when the Lord gave this to me I could make a little more of a continuity in these four messages in this series

So I'm actually changing the titles of the first two messages from coming in and going out to

let's come in and let's go out all right let's come in let's go out let's be

friends so obviously next week's message will begin with the word let's yeah and it's very important to me so don't make fun of me about that all right

Okay, so let's be friends. So I want you look Luke chapter 15 look at verse one it says then all the Democrats and Republicans

I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I was just trying to bring it up to modern day, saw tax collectors, I thought, and when I saw

sinners, okay, I, so.

I don't know if you ever notice what the Bible always puts tax collectors with

sinners did you notice that and this and that's the Bible by the way all right so

then all the tax collectors and the sinners drew near to hear him.

Notice the word sinners.

And the Pharisees and scribes complain saying this man receives sinners and eats with them.
