For Sinners Only!<\/p>\n
from Spurgeon\u2019s, \u201cTHE SINNER\u2019S FRIEND\u201d<\/p>\n
Jesus Christ is come to seek and to save SINNERS. Electing
\nlove has selected some of the worst to be made the best.
\nRedeeming love has bought, specially bought, many of the worst
\nto be the reward of the Savior\u2019s passion. Effectual grace calls
\nout and compels to come in, many of the vilest of the vile.<\/p>\n
Christ endured, indeed, the hells of all for whom he died, the
\ntorments, or the equivalent for the torments, which all of them
\nought to have suffered\u2013 the eternal wrath of God condensed
\nand put into one cup, too bitter for mortal tongue to know,
\nand then drained to its utmost dregs by his loving lips.<\/p>\n
Beloved, this was love!! \u201cHerein is love, that while we were yet
\nsinners, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.\u201d \u201cGreater love
\nhas no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
