  16. FANCY MEETING YOU

  17. A lot of people in Jericho were scratching their heads that morning…… ...People who had gone into Zacchaeus office with a frown upon their face, came out with a smile, muttering things like, UNBELIEVABLE Don’t know what’s happened to the man HE’S TAKEN THE WRONG PILLS TODAY Certainly not the same man who was BEHIND HIS DESK yesterday.

  18. Everyone on the town of Jericho were agreed that Zacchaeus was a nasty piece of work… HE’S A TRAITOR. WHAT LOYAL JEW WOULD WORK FOR THE ENEMY? ONLY SOMEONE AS SELFISH AND GREEDY AS ZACCHAEUS. NOT SATISFIED WITH THE TAXES LAID DOWN BY THE ROMANS, HE DOUBLES THE AMOUNT AND KEEPS HALF FOR HIMSELF. NO WONDER HE CAN LIVE IN A BIG HOUSE AND EAT AND DRINK AS WE HEAR HE DOES.

  19. And everyone had good reason to feel mystified by the change in Zacchaeus. I WENT IN EXPECTING TO PAY TEN POUNDS AND-YOU WILL FIND THIS HARD TO BELIEVE, GREEDY, GRAPSING ZACCHAUS TOLD ME TO PUT AWAY MY MONEY AND GAVE ME FORTY POUNDS! HE ASKED ME IF I NEEDED A TABLE FOR THE FAMILY TO EAT FROM. WHENI SAID ‘YES’, GUESS WHAT HE REPLIED? DON’T KNOW. WHAT WAS HIS REPLY HE TOLD ME TO GO AROUND TO HIS HOUSE THIS EVENING AND I COULD HAVE HIS. HE OFFERED ME CLOTHESE FROM HIS WARDROBE AND A GIFT OF FIFTY POUNDS.

  20. UNBELIEVABLE. DON’T KNOW WHAT’S HAPPENED TO THE MAN HE’S TAKEN THE WRONG PILLS TODAY OR GOT OUT OF HIS BED THE WRONG SIDE. And then suddenly the door of the office opened and out walked Zacchaeus himself… … Who is this new Zacchaeus… …Zacchaeus smiled, waved to the people and returned to his office while those around stood rooted to the ground in amazement

  21. AMAZING UNBELIEVABLE CAN JESUS OF NAZARETH REALLY MAKE SUCH A DIFFERENCE TO THE LIFE OF A MAN LIKE ZACHHAEUS? OBVIOUSLY HE CAN AND HE HAS. Jesus IS THE DIFFERENCE

  22. I Met Jesus I met Jesus at the crossroads Where the two ways meet Satan, too, was standing there He said “come this way, Lots and lots of pleasures I will give to you today!”

  23. But I said “NO! There’s Jesus here See what He offers me: Down here, my sins forgiven And then with God in heaven Praise God, that’s enough for me!”
