A Call to Sinners

 

...I came not to call the righteous,

but sinners to repentance."

       ~ Mark 2:17b

The sad procession was on its way

as they passed through its crowded streets.

Scorned by the ones He came to save,

beaten beyond recognition.

With His strength exhausted He arrived at the place

where He laid down His life for mankind.

With outstretched arms, they pierced His hands

and hung Him between two thieves to die.

The Savior's love...

so tender and pleading!

How could we understand what it cost Him?

In that solomn hour He said, "It is finished."

and bowed His head and died.

In His presence accusations are hushed,

He comforts the fallen sinner.

Memories of the past melt away

when one kneels at the foot of the cross.

Oh fallen sinner,

Your faintest sigh for sin the Lord tenderly hears.

His eyes are compassionately on you.

No matter how deep into the pit you have fallen,

God's grace is greater still.

"And the publican, standing afar off,

would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven,

but smote upon his breast, saying,

God be merciful to me a sinner.

I tell you, this man went down to his house justified

rather than the other:

for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased;

and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted."

                   ~ Luke 18:13-14

The Scripture says,

"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God."

                ~ Romans 3:23

Soul, that includes you and I.

Only when we realize the awfulness of our sin against God

and feel its deep sorrow in our hearts,

can we turn from the sin we once loved

and accept the Lord Jesus as our Savior.

"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus,

and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead,

thou shalt be saved."

                 ~ Romans 10:9

Don't fall asleep without Jesus

until you are assured of a place in heaven.

Tonight, if you would like to receive the gift of eternal life

first you must believe in the Lord.

You have to ask for your sins to be forgiven

and put your trust in the Lord.

To be a believer in the Lord, ask for eternal life.

There's only one way to heaven and that's through the Lord Jesus.

That's God's wonderful plan of salvation.

You can begin a personal relationship with Him

by praying from your heart a prayer such as the following:

"O God, I am a sinner.

I am sorry for my sins.

I want to turn from my sin.

I receive Jesus Christ as my Savior;

I confess Him as my Lord.

From now on I want to follow Him.

In Jesus' name, Amen."

 If you have received the Lord Jesus as your personal Savior 

after reading this invitation, please let us know.

We would love to hear from you. Your first name is sufficient.

We'll leave the light on for you...
