To make it quite practical I have a very simple test. After I have explained the way of Christ to somebody I say __ow, are you ready to say that you are a Christian?_ And they hesitate. And then I say, __hat__ the matter? Why are you hesitating?_ And so often people say, __ don__ feel like I__ good enough yet. I don__ think I__ ready to say I__ a Christian now._ And at once I know that I have been wasting my breath. They are still thinking in terms of themselves. They have to do it. It sounds very modest to say, __ell, I don__ think I_ good enough,_ but it__ a very denial of the faith. The very essence of the Christian faith is to say that He is good enough and I am in Him. As long as you go on thinking about yourself like that and saying, ____ not good enough; Oh, I__ not good enough,_ you are denying God _ you are denying the gospel _ you are denying the very essence of the faith and you will never be happy. You think you__e better at times and then again you will find you are not as good at other times than you thought you were. You will be up and down forever. How can I put it plainly? It doesn__ matter if you have almost entered into the depths of hell. It does not matter if you are guilty of murder as well as every other vile sin. It does not matter from the standpoint of being justified before God at all. You are no more hopeless than the most moral and respectable person in the world.
