I noticed today the context of Luke 14 and 15. Jesus was addressing the religious leaders. Their piety was such that they would do anything to keep from being stained by the world. That included the erection of invisible walls between themselves and the "sinners". Jesus came along and refused to live within those walls. Then He spoke about true humility, about the cost of true discipleship and about His compassion for the lost. Somehow we must figure out how to take His love to the people trapped in the muck and the mire without being sucked into it.
