Zacchaeus, 10 Minas, Triumphal Entry (Part 1)
The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In this discourse, Steve Gregg discusses the biblical account of Zacchaeus, a rich chief tax collector whom Jesus invited to his house. Despite criticisms from the Pharisees, Jesus had lunch with Zacchaeus, and he even pledged to make amends and return fourfold whatever he had wrongfully taken. Gregg also mentions the parable of the Talents and how it relates to Jesus giving his life as a ransom for many. He concludes by emphasizing the importance of being good stewards of what God has entrusted to us, rather than using it for our own fun and games.
