What does it matter that Jesus called Matthew, a tax collector, to be His disciple? Who did Jesus come for? To whom does Christ say today, “Follow me”?

Sermons from Vicar Timothy Steele
“And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit’ (Acts 2:3-4). They partook of fire, not of burning but of saving fire; of fire which consumes the thorns of sins, but gives luster to the soul. This is now coming upon you also, and that to strip away and consume your sins which are like thorns... and to give you grace… A fiery sword barred of old the gates of Paradise; a fiery tongue which brought salvation restored the gift.” - St. Cyril of Jerusalem
