    We cannot play around with temptation because we are not strong enough to resist it for long, and when temptation is taken, it will always lead us into sin - away from God.

    Using Zacchaeus as an example, this sermon shows that no matter what our past, we are lovingly accepted by Jesus Christ as His own. Sermon based upon a sermon by Lee Stroebel.
