I am such
a spiritual washout! I know of no-one who has done more than I
have to discredit the cause of truth. In fact I must rank as
the epitome of degradation. Why, I have never even done one
thing that is praiseworthy or noteworthy. How can I believe
that there is hope for someone like me? How can I hope that
God can show me mercy?
`Whenever
we come to the throne of God to ask His mercy, we may look
up, and behold the rainbow of promise, and find in it
assurance that our prayers shall be answered.' (ST 10-10-92)
`It
was love for sinners that led Christ to pay the price of
redemption.' (PK692)
`Those
whose course has been most offensive to Him He freely accepts;
when they repent, He imparts to them His divine Spirit, places
them in the highest positions of trust, and sends them forth
into the camp of the disloyal to proclaim His boundless
mercy.' (LHU 220)
`Christ
teaches that even those who are indifferent to the claims of
God are the objects of His pitying love. Every soul, however
degraded by sin, is in God's sight accounted precious.'
(COL 194)
`The
chain that has been let down from the throne of God is long
enough to reach to the lowest depths. Christ is able to lift
the most sinful out of the pit of degradation, and to place
them where they will be acknowledged as children of God, heirs
with Christ to an immortal inheritance.' (7T 229)
