GOSPEL NUGGET 530

Are You Blind?

Yes, are you blind? Are you blind to the fact that God is an absolutely holy God and that He demands perfect righteousness from you? Are you blind to the vileness of sin and its control over you? Are you blind to the grim reality that it takes only one sin on your part for you to be a sure candidate for the lake of fire? Are you blind to your spiritual condition that you are helpless and powerless to save yourself? Are you blind to your own utter weakness with regard to righteousness?

Are you blind to the all-sufficiency of Christ and His work on the cross for your salvation? Are you blind to the attractions of His work for you on the cross of Calvary?

If you say "yes" to all these questions then, my friend, let me warn you that your willful blindness will lead you to eternal darkness the very moment when it will be lights out for you here.

God grant you grace, will you open your eyes? God is an absolutely holy God. Perfect righteousness, no less, is His demand. Sin is your greatest problem. You really can't save yourself. Christ and His work on the cross is your only hope.
