Overview

Zacchaeus is not simply a rich man; he is a tax collector — which, in that subjugated, conquered country, meant he had a lot of power.

But the Bible is primarily not about money, power, and everything else; it’s primarily about Jesus. Once we see what the text tells us about Jesus, we come to understand the rest. In this text, Zacchaeus does not only get information or inspiration. When he meets Jesus, his whole life gets revolutionized.

So let’s see about 1) the necessity of conversion, 2) the circumstances of conversion, 3) the key to conversion, and 4) the sign of conversion.
