Luke 5:30-31

Now the Pharisees and their scribes were grumbling against Jesus’ disciples, saying. Why are you eating and drinking with the tax collectors and pre-eminently sinful people? And Jesus replied to them, It is not those who are healthy who need a physician but those who are sick.

Jesus came to bridge the gap of sin to reconciliation with God that the law could not fulfill. Everyone comes short of the perfection mark, and the love and blood of Jesus cover the sin. Jesus is of the mindset to heal the sick and reestablish a relationship with God. We are to represent Jesus in that love for the lost and help save the lost.
