Come to Jesus!

Come to Christ Jesus today, sinner friend.  If you are poor and wretched, weak and wounded, sick and sore, Jesus is ready, He waits patiently to save you.  He is full of pity, compassion, love and power.  He is able to forgive your sins, He is willing to have mercy on you, doubt Him no more. Come, ye needy and unworthy, come and welcome; freely receive God's so great Salvation at the Cross; ask the Holy Spirit for true belief and real repentance.

Christ Jesus is rich in grace and mercy towards the ungodly.  Salvation is available today only to those who have no money, that is, nothing to offer but their guilt and sins; Come to Jesus Christ now helpless and guilty, and buy His Salvation freely without money and without price. You're caught up in a mess called Sin, and only one Person can save you from it.  Let not your self-righteousness make you linger, all the fitness that Jesus requires is that you feel your need of Him, and this the Spirit of God gives you with His quickening and illumination.

Come, ye weary and heavy laden, lost in your sins and ruined by the fall. If you tarry until you're better, you'll never come to Jesus at all. Not the good, not the righteous, but Sinners Jesus came to call to Repentance. The Lord Jesus Christ agonized in the garden of Gethsemane and sweat great drops of blood especially for you, and on the bloody Tree, behold Him as He dies on account of your sins; Hear Him cry, before He gives up the ghost, "It is Finished!"

Sinner, will not this suffice?  Lo! the Incarnate God, suffering, bleeding, crucified, risen, ascended, and seated at the right hand of God.  You can't hold back the hands of time, and the sand is running through your hourglass awful fast. Believe on the merits of His Atoning Blood; Rely on Him, rely wholly; Let no other vain trust intrude: None but Jesus, none but Jesus, can do helpless sinners any good.
