Luke 5:32
May 10
Luke 5:32
I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
The self-righteous will not come to Christ. You won’t take a poison antidote unless you know you’ve been poisoned. You won’t need a doctor unless you’re sick, and you won’t come to Jesus until you realize that your way of life (your sin) has ruined you and that you have no hope for all eternity without Him who is the WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE. That is why sometimes the out and out wretched profligate sinner will see his need of the Savior sooner than someone who has an outward show of respectability. Look around at this old sinful world. Is it not obvious that something is wrong? Mankind is lost without Christ, and is on the way to an eternity of despair, suffering and wretchedness, and the tragedy is that they don’t realize it. Do YOU realize your need of a Savior? Jesus said, “Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28.
