Excerpt: "Maybe Your Past?
Some people put off Christ because they
think their sins are just too ugly for them to
come to God. They know the sinful, even hateful
things they have said and done, and are
convinced that this prevents them from ever
changing or doing better. They think they are too
far gone for the Lord.
But, look at Saul. He says he put Christians
in prison, pursuing them to death. He beat them
and tried to compel them to give up their faith.
.Yet, God saw in Saul something worth saving.
He may have persecuted the church, but he could
be different, he could be a great source of good
and redemption for many peoples. And, that is
what he became when he stopped putting off
becoming a Christian.
God may look at you the same way. In spite
of your past, in spite of your sins, God can and
will forgive you for whatever you have done. You
can come to Him and receive the same grace and
mercy Saul did. Don't let your past stop you."---Gospel Minutes (Why do you delay? June 12, 2009 editon)
