God Rejoices When Lost Are Saved
The Parables of Luke 15

Scripture: Luke 15:7, 10, & 32
7 I tell you, in the same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous people who don’t need repentance.
10 I tell you, in the same way, there is joy in the presence of God’s angels over one sinner who repents.
32 But we had to celebrate and rejoice, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.
