I. Zacchaeus was a Sinner
Zaccheus meant “pure” or “innocent” - in Hebrew - the righteous one - far from this but became this - Jesus restores us to who we should be
not all sinnners respond the same - to group people
Jericho had an old town and new town - sort of like Cuyama - was given to Cleopatra by Anthony
Overtaxed Jews - sided with Romans because of $
II.
Zacchaeus became a Seeker
- must become like children
He was rich but not happy
The trying to see Jesus is in the imperfect tense - indicating a continual action in past tense - the Holy Spirit does His work before us
He lost his pride - ran and climbed - when we seek it is all that we are
When we are seeking - it is important to know that realize God is doing the seeking and finding
III.
Zacchaeus met the Savior
Lk - 18:25 - God can do the impossible
Gladly - is the word chairon - luke uses with salvation joy - means to rejoice
The Savior knows the sinners name - will respond when he calls
IV.
Zacchaeus was surrounded by Skeptics
The word means to grumble, mutter or complain out loud - the root of the word mean the buzzing of bees
V. Zacchaeus is Saved
Zacchaeus made his salvation public
Ashamed of me, ashamed of you -
Son of Abraham - a person justified by faith - Romans
Being saved gives us a heart for the poor and hurting - half his resources was a lot of money
The generosity was a proof of a change heart, not a means to it
Zacchaeus would no longer be wealthy - but he finally had real riches that would last forever
The impact was not only on him, but his family
He was already a Jew by birth, but now by belief -
The Greek word for lost is apollumi - it means to destroy - we are born on our way to destruction - eternally - thus we need to be saved!
