Tax collectors and other notorious sinners often came to listen to Jesus teach.
This made the Pharisees and teachers of religious law complain that he was associating with such sinful people...
even eating with them!
Luke 15:1-2
Is there such a quality to our lives that "notorious sinners" want to be around us?
Are we so much like Jesus that that quality to our lives compels us to want to hang out with "notorious sinners" to the point of socializing with them?
Or are we & our friends so prissy & precious in our "faith walk" that we can't "jeopardize our witness" by hanging out with people who aren't followers of Jesus?
