19:1-10 Did Zacchaeus get saved because he promised to give half his wealth to the poor and to make fourfold restitution to those he defrauded?
No! Zacchaeus got saved because in his undertaking to do what he said, he showed his love for Christ and his fellow-man, and that he had repented of his past dishonesty.
He had become a new creation in Christ (cp Lk 19:6-9 with 2Cor 5:17 and Ga 5:6). Zacchaeus' conversion was a fulfilment of Christ's purpose for coming into the world (cp Lk 19:10 and Mt 18:11).
