You have heard it said that even Jesus hung out with tax-collectors & prostitutes so how dare we judge such people. But what is not often pointed out in these appeals for loving tolerance is that Jesus expected these people to change, to repent & no longer be corrupt tax-collectors (corruption & tax-collection was synonymous at the time) or prostitutes. Thus, Jesus only hung out with them to change them. He in no way was approving of their sins. These tax-collectors & prostitutes became FORMER corrupt tax-collectors & FORMER prostitutes.

Why did Jesus answer a question with a question, rather than just telling the Pharisees by what authority He acted? They would have called Jesus a blasphemer.

Why did Jesus answer a question with a question, rather than just telling the Pharisees by what authority He acted? The Pharisees were really not interested in Jesus' answer to know the truth. They asked him to trap Jesus in his response. However, Jesus did not answer their question because they did not answer His.
