And Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham. For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost." Luke 19:9-10
This verse is one of the theme verses for the ministry of Christ. It is one passage of many in which any who heard understood exactly what Jesus was about. It all happened because Jesus took notice of a man whom everyone understood was a sinner and a despised man. However, this rich, despised man humbled himself and allowed Jesus to affect his life by seeking Christ.
The most important thing in a man's life - whether rich or poor- is that he receives Jesus. Christ came to earth to fulfill this task over 2,000 years ago. After all this time salvation is the same; He still receives sinners to be changed into the glory of God. He has given us the task to spread this news. We are to be the ambassadors of Christ, and present the Savior to the world.
For he says, "In a favorable time I listened to you, and in a day of
salvation I have helped you." Behold, now is the favorable time; behold,
now is the day of salvation. 2 Corinthians 6:2
