Lk. 15: 1-7: Jews regarded the tax collectors as
sinners and thereby ‘untouchables’. Jesus does not write off them as outcasts
but wants them to be saved. The God proclaimed by Jesus is not the ‘just judge’
of the pharasees who rewards and punishes strictly according to our action, but
the loving father (Lk 15: 11-31) who forgives us even before we have sinned. We
do not need to earn God’s forgiveness but need to turn to god and accept it
