About This Message
A woman with a broken reputation walks uninvited into a Pharisee's dinner, breaks open a jar worth a year's wages, and weeps at the feet of Jesus. Simon sees a scandal. Jesus sees a worshipper. The depth of your love will always be tied to the depth of your grasp of grace.
“Those who are forgiven much, love much. But a person who is forgiven little shows only little love.”— Luke 7:47
Key Points
- 1
Simon invited Jesus but gave Him none of the basic courtesies of hospitality — no water, no kiss, no oil.
- 2
The woman gave everything — her tears, her hair, her most valuable possession.
- 3
Two debtors, two debts cancelled. The one who knew the size of their debt loved most.
- 4
Simon looked at her and saw a sinner. Jesus looked at her and said, "Your sins are forgiven."
- 5
The question for us: how big do we think our debt was? The answer shapes everything about how we worship.
