God must and will save your soul if you trust His Son's Finished Work. Bring nothing to Christ, but your sinfulness, come empty-handed. No money, no price, nothing to pay. Jesus only asks that you take everything, all gratis, from His hand. Don't put on anything but Christ, or anything with Christ. None but Jesus - must be your motto. He who has 'nothing to pay' gets all his debts cancelled instantly and forever by His Best Friend. Jesus Christ so loved sinners that He built the Red Cross Hospital. All patients received there must be sin-sick and bankrupt. Salvation is all of grace, and the sole channel of grace is the Lord Jesus Christ, who lived, loved, bled, died, and rose again from the dead for our salvation. Perish every thought of human pride, let Christ be magnified. The free favor of God is what you need most.
The Gospel must be received freely, gratis. The Lord doesn't bargain or barter with bankrupt sinners, you can never deserve God's mercy. You can't make yourself fit for God's Salvation. Come to Christ for everything you need. Don't try to impress Him with your puny dead works. Your own efforts only reveal your self-righteous rebellion and pride. Come and take freely what Christ provides. Death came through Eve's eye and mouth, but salvation comes through the ear. All God's mercy to a sinner is all gratis, that is, free for the taking. God never sells;He always gives. He asks no payment from you. Only divine grace can pardon such heinous sins as yours. Jesus is our Ransom, Substitute and Sin-Bearer. He suffered for us what God's wrath and justice demanded of us. God punished Christ instead of you. If you trust Christ's payment, then God can no longer punish you, you are clear, free to go. Christ paid all your debts, the receipt is given, you debts are all gone. God's divine justice has no claims on you.
You cannot earn eternal life. Salvation must be all Gratis. You must received the forgiveness of sins as a penniless beggar by God's free mercy down low at Christ's pierced feet. You must receive and take everything freely from the hand of the Crucified Savior. Lie down utterly undone and ruined before Jesus. Your next stop will be the Judgment, prepare to meet thy God. Only Precious Blood can make Atonement for your guilty soul. No one is neutral on the Blood of Christ. You are either going to Heaven through it, or to Hell without it. Every lie that you ever told came from the devil. You have a lying and lustful heart. If you reject the Blood of Jesus Christ, you are doomed for sure. Eternity is forever. Where will you spend it? The wages of sin is death. Sin kills your soul. It's not what you can do, it's what Jesus has done. The fig leaves of self-righteousness might hide your sins from each other, but not from God.
God has never changed His mind about sin, He still abhors it. God burned Sodom to the ground because of sin. Human nature says, "Well, I've done the best I could, and that should be good enough, I'm just as good as most people, if God let's anyone into heaven, He'll surely let me in." But the best you have done will not do the job. Without the shedding of Blood, there is no remission (forgiveness of sins). Poor sinner, you cannot be saved by any of your merits, works, penance, preparation, or feelings. Jesus alone must save you as a work of gratis mercy, not because you deserve it. Salvation is free, gratis, all for nothing. Salvation is through eternal Love, through mercy alone, not of human merit. Your own righteousness is such an abominable thing to God, that it will surely damn you as your greatest profanities would; and the best thing for you to do with it is to bury it, and run away from it. Free grace is the glory of the Gospel. Grace is absolutely free, undeserved, given by God, because He delights in Mercy. Nothing else will satisfy real, convinced, awakened sinners. A real sinner knows salvation by himself is hopeless, he is shut up in a condemned cell, nothing he can do can possibly reverse his death sentence from divine justice.
You have nothing to pay, Jesus frankly forgives sinners, that is the only way. Bible Salvation is everything for nothing, pardon for free, Christ for free, Heaven for free. The Great Physician has none but gratis patients, He never charges you a thing for His services. The gifts which the God of all Grace grants to sinful men are beyond all price, He doesn't barter or haggle with self-righteous men, but makes His eternal blessings free as the air we breathe every day. To a thirsty man, the sound of a bubbling fountain is music. To a hungry man, the smell of a home cooked meal makes his mouth water. And to a convicted heart and guilty soul, free pardon is the best news he has ever heard. "Freely" means salvation is an absolute gift. Sinners can neither purchase, procure, earn, or produce salvation by their own efforts, sacrifice, or service. Salvation is only given to us sinners, not because we deserve it, but because we need it. We are empty, and Jesus fills us; we are hungry, and Jesus feeds us; we are naked, and Jesus clothes us; we are Guilty, and Jesus forgives us. No preparation or payment is required, simply confess you are guilty and need Jesus' Blood, desire to have Him, and take Jesus by trusting to His Precious Blood now. That is all.
