The Pharigees wers wpset by the unconventionality of Jesus in re- ceiving sinnets and cating with them, for 2 man is knows by the company he keeps. Christ cpverly throws the argu- ment back on themselves i these par- abies. Jesus showed up the loving personality of God who surely would feel as much interest in a human being, as a shepherd would in a sheep or a woman in & coin. The Christlan religlon is the only one at shows God seeking after men. All hers show men seeking after Clod, d knows how valuable men are. He does not consider them mere worms of the dust. God's inheritance in the #ainte is worthful, men are predious too precious to be lost, 5o God gearches for them. as revealed so powerfully in the Prodigal Son. Both boys in the pat- able were spiritually lost. One boy wanted to go off to a far country and re went. Now the lost sheep was brought ack by the shepherd and the coin picked » by the woman but the lost young How t5 choose to come back just he had chosen to go away. But the ler £on was also lost. These are types lost trreligious people and lost re- cus folks. One went ore way and r the other, but both for what there was in it not for love to father.
