delay in making a response. He left all (probably a good money-making job as a hated tax gatherer), rose up (indicat­ ing readiness for action) and followed Christ (v. 28). Why don’t more'men fol­ low his example? What are some of the reasons men give for failing Christ today? The deep-seated character of the thing which Matthew did is shown by the feast he made for Christ. He wanted others to know the same Christ he had found precious. The supper was the means of getting the Saviour and sinners together (v. 29). What means are you using to get others face to face with Christ? At the feast Christ was criticized for m i n g l i n g with publicans (like Matthew) and sinners.
