Jesus Calls the Unlikely | Mark 2:13–17

Pastor Kelvin continues our journey through the Gospel of Mark by teaching from Mark 2:13–17, where Jesus calls Levi, a tax collector, to follow Him.
In a moment that shocked the religious leaders of the day, Jesus not only calls Levi—but sits down to eat with sinners and outcasts. When questioned by the Pharisees, Jesus responds with a powerful reminder of His mission: He did not come for those who think they are righteous, but for those who know they need a Savior.
This passage reveals the heart of the gospel. Jesus moves toward the broken, calls the unlikely, and invites sinners into transformation.
In this message, we see:
• Why Jesus calls people others would reject
• The danger of self-righteous religion
• What it truly means to follow Christ
• The mission of Jesus to seek and save sinners
No one is too far gone for the grace of God.
