Matthew 18:11 - 18:14
Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg discusses Matthew 18:11-14, highlighting the idea that God’s will is not always done, and that men are condemned when they reject the light of God. Gregg explains that the parables in this passage emphasize the importance of humility and repentance in being found by God. He also notes that while the parables do not definitively answer whether it is God or the sinner who takes the initiative in returning to God, they do emphasize that God actively seeks out those who are lost, and that it is possible for even God's people to stray.
