All my theology is reduced to this narrow compass --
Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners.But however long you may have continued in rebellion, and how ever black and long the catalog of your sins, yet if you will now turn to God by a sincere repentance, and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, you shall not be cast out. Do not for a moment suppose that you must make yourself better, or prepare your heart for a worthy reception of Christ, but come at once - come as you are.God is not glorified in any transaction upon earth so much as in the conversion of a sinner. If you were not a sinful, polluted, helpless, and miserable creature, this Savior would not be suited to you, and you would not be comprehended in his gracious invitations to the children of men. It will never do to plead sin as an excuse for sin, or to attempt to justify sinful acts by pleading that we have an evil heart. This instead of being a valid apology, is the very ground of our condemnation. Men are more accountable for their motives, than for anything else; and primarily, morality consists in the motives, that is in the affections.Nature never makes any blunders, when she makes a fool she means it. Yet when a woman of Canaan came to implore his aid, he did not reject her, though she descended from as accursed race. |
