Mark 2 speaks of Matthew inviting Jesus as well as tax collectors and other people that were considered undesirable, to eat with them.
Jesus spoke to crowds of thousands at different times. He healed many and even raised people from the dead. But on the day he was taken to be crucified, many of those same people were there cheering his death on.
Jesus has called us to talk to everyone. The undesirable, the unlikely, the proud, the weak. If there is one thing I’ve seen over the years that holds true 100%, it is that if we Christians will tell everyone about Jesus, no matter if we “think” they will listen or not, then one of two things will happen. Either they will receive the word and believe, or they will be repelled by the word and they will leave. You cannot constantly hear the word of God without either being changed by it or the spirit controlling you will lash out and cause you to get away from the word of God. Either way, the truth of the word of God is either evidence in our favor or our conviction at our judgement when we kneel before Jesus on that day.
Never stop telling people about Jesus. Don’t decide for them if the word of God will impact them because it serves a purpose in everyone who hears it.
