Luke 15:1-2
-This man receives sinners and eats with them.
-Main verse of the chapter.

-The older son's heart was like the scribes and high jews in those days. Nation of Israel.

-Older son's pride has kept him from his father.

-For the church:
         -We are all lost son's.

-Elder son sickness;
        -Believes God owns him something when he has been good
         -Divides people into two different groups.

-There's hope for the Elder son's.

-This story is about a Loving Father.

-God owns you nothing. God gives us things by His Grace.
