Trump on Iran: “They’re getting hit so hard, and they want to make a deal — but I say they’re not ready to make a deal because every time they make a deal they want to change it and everything. They’re not ready.”

A New Recruit
Tom Shrader walks through Matthew 9:9-17 in a harmonized Gospel study, focusing on Jesus calling Matthew the tax collector, a man despised as a social and religious outcast, to follow Him. Jesus then dines with tax gatherers and sinners, drawing the Pharisees’ criticism and prompting His response that He came not for the righteous but for the sick. Shrader applies the passage by calling believers to recognize their own sinfulness before God, share the gospel naturally with friends and family, and understand that genuine conversion always produces a desire to bring others to Christ.
“He lost a career but gained a destiny. He lost his material possessions but gained a spiritual fortune. He lost temporal security but he gained eternal life.” — Tom Shrader
