Drowning Men Thrash

20:08:05 :: [theology] :: 135 words

“No man sins more unreservedly than he who sins in desperation, believing that there is no pardon for him from God.” —C. H. Spurgeon

I certainly found this to be true in my own life. I was sharing my testimony a couple of weeks ago and I realized that during those dark years of my early college career during which my ignorance of the eternity of “eternal salvation in Christ” I became an altogether reckless individual. As much as we Christians are bad about trying to earn our salvation and depending only half on His grace and half on our own “goodness,” hell hath no greater friend than the Christian who believes himself to have been forsaken. Thank God that His grace is beyond our power to throw away or nullify!
