Luke 15:6-7
15:6 Returning home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, telling them, ‘Rejoice with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost.’
15:7 I tell you, in the same way there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous people who have no need to repent.
Luke 15:23-24
15:23 Bring the fattened calf and kill it! Let us eat and celebrate,
15:24 because this son of mine was dead, and is alive again – he was lost and is found!’ So they began to celebrate.
Luke 15:32
15:32 It was appropriate to celebrate and be glad, for your brother was dead, and is alive; he was lost and is found.’”
