Men of the Bible: Levi by ric gustafson
Levi became Matthew the Apostle. Pharisees wondered why Jesus would call a tax collector to be one of his Apostles. Tax collectors worked for the Roman government. They had corrupt business practices. Jesus knew that Levi was a sinner and needed to repent. Levi did not call himself a righteous man. He knew that he was a sinner. Once he opened his heart to Jesus, his past ceased. Jesus set him on a new course. He became one of Jesus's chosen twelve.
Matthew was a man of God.
