Poem
Now behold, one came and said to Him,"Good Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I might have eternal life?" So, He said to him,"Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is God. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments." He said to Him,"Which ones?" Jesus said to him,"You shall not murder,' You shall not commit adultery,' You shall not steal,'You shall not bear false witness,' Honor your father and your mother,' and you shall love your neighbor, as you love yourself.'

Now as it happened, as Jesus sat at the table in the house that behold many tax collectors and sinners sat down with Him and his disciples. And when the when the Pharisees saw it, they said to His disciples. "Why does your teacher sit with tax collectors and sinners? When Jesus heard that, He said to them,"Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. 'But go and learn what this means: 'I desire mercy and not sacrifice.' For I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.' And he also spoke this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others. "Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. ""The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself,'God, I thank
