Re: Not Worthy
The Christian is a man who expects nothing from this world. He does not
pin his hopes on it, because he knows that it is doomed.
The Christian is not a good man. He is a vile wretch who has been saved
by the grace of God. Do you think that you deserve forgiveness? If you
do, you are not a Christian.
One of the best tests of whether we are truly Christian or not is just
this: Do I hate my natural self?
--D.Martyn Lloyd-Jones
But whatever things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.
But no, rather, I also count all things to be loss for the excellency
of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have
suffered the loss of all things, and count them to be dung, so that I
may win Christ (Phil3:7-8)
Faithful is the Word and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus
came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief...For I am the
least of the apostles and am not sufficient to be called an apostle,
because I persecuted the church of God...and am no more worthy to be
called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants...But by the
grace of God I am what I am, and His grace which was toward me has not
been without fruit... (~ 1Tim1:15, 1Cor15:9-10, Lk15:19)
