Let us then be bold like Christ and Matthew and say, follow Christ. Understand that true mercy is to tell the truth of the gospel – repentance and forgiveness of sins in Christ. People must be brought to recognize their disease – they are sinners and cannot save themselves. Then they can receive the doctor – a divine Physician who only comes for sinners. A doctor who heals every patient and is partial to no one, spurns no one who recognizes their sin.
