Jesus Saves Public Enemy Number One

The story of Zacchaeus at the beginning of Luke 19 is a story about how repentance begun in his life - about how his heart was totally transformed & reorientated. However the story does not start or end with repentance, nor does it reach its climax with repentance. Instead it reaches its climax with a demonstration of costly love & profoundly teaches us something very important about the nature & power of Christ's amazing grace towards even the worst of sinners.
