Click to enlarge and you will see this sign for the city mission says Christ Jesus "receiveth sinners." What that might mean with the quotation marks is hard to say.
This is actually a proper use of quotation marks, because "recieveth sinners" is a quote from the Bible (KJV translation). When the religious hypocrites were getting upset with Jesus for mixing with the wrong sort of people, they said "This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them".
