| UNWORTHY--Morning June 6 Spurgeon | | One cheering word, poor lost sinner, for you! You think you mustn't come to GOD because you are unworthy. Now; there hasn't been a saint alive on this earth who hasn't been made to feel that he is unworthy. If Job, and Isaiah, and Paul were all obliged to say "I am unworthy," oh; poor sinner, will you be ashamed to join in the same confession?? If divine grace doesn't eradicate all sin from the believer, how do you hope to do it yourself?? and if GOD loves His own while they are yet unworthy, do you think your loathsomeness will prevent His loving you?? Believe on JESUS, you outcast from the world's society! JESUS calls you, just as you are. Even now say, "You, Lord; have died for sinners, I am a sinner; sprinkle your blood on me," if you will confess your sin you will find pardon. If now; with all your heart, you will say; " I am unworthy, wash me," you shall be washed now. If the Holy Spirit shall enable you from your heart to cry; O, Lamb of GOD, I come! you shall rise from this reading this morning with all your sins pardoned; and although you woke with every sin that mankind has ever committed on you head, you shall rest tonight accepted in the Beloved; though once degraded with the filthy rags of sin, you shall be adorned with a robe of righteousness, and appear as pure as the angels. For "Now", mark "Now is the time of GOD'S favor." If you trust in GOD who justifies the wicked, your faith is reckoned as righteousness. Oh! May the Holy Spirit give you saving faith in HIM who receives the most unworthy. _________________ Martin G. Smith

| Re: UNWORTHY--Morning June 6 Spurgeon | | Fact is, even after you're saved, you still feel unworthy.
But you recognise the worth of the blood of Jesus Christ.
His blood alone makes us worthy.
God bless.

| Re: UNWORTHY--Morning June 6 Spurgeon | | Thank you for sharing that, brother. This was wonderful :)
Lately, I've been keenly aware of my unworthiness (without Christ) and so I cling to Him. Who else, can I cling to, but the only one who is perfect, and the only one who can love me...like He does ?
Though unworthy, in and of myself, God makes me worthy, in and of the death of his dear son.
What a great story...and one that's true; that the royal King of heaven would stoop down from heaven and adopt us sinful beggars into his own family, and bestow upon us the title of 'sons and daughters of God' !
Galations 4: 6,7 "Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, "Abba, Father." So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, God has made you also an heir."
In Jesus, John
