Remember…⤵️
…the church is not for the perfect.
It is for the sinner. ❤️
It is for those seeking healing and comfort.
Just as a hospital is for the sick, the church is for those in need of God’s grace. 🤕 ⛪️
Jesus dined with the tax collectors and the sinners.
Not because they were righteous.
✅ But because they needed healing.
Church is not a sanctuary for saints, but a hospital for sinners.
Come as you are, not because you’re perfect, but because you’re in need of the Great Physician. 🏥✝️
