About This Quote
…Jesus spent more time eating, drinking and lounging with 'tax collectors and sinners' than explaining the Roman Roadmap to Heaven or undermining their belief system. It is a common misconception that Jesus spent all his time with the "rich" in order to bring them into a better lifestyle. In fact, he spent much of his time with the poor and the down-trodden in order to show them how to be better people. He also made it a point to make sure that the Pharisees and other religious leaders got an opportunity to question him live on television.
