GOSPEL NUGGETS
The Liberal Preacher And The Dying Woman (A True Story)
One time a knock on a liberal preacher's door was heard in his study.
(A liberal preacher is someone who does not believe in miracles in the Bible, he does not believe that Christ died for the salvation of sinners. For him, it was just an example of how we should love others, he believes that the Bible is full of errors. He's actually a false preacher)
A little girl who was poorly dressed came and pleaded with him: "Can you help me get my mother into heaven? She's at home. She's dying. She sent me out to find a preacher to help her get into heaven. My Mama is dying."
He went with her to a poor section of town and there he saw a woman who was dying on her deathbed with half of her life gone. He then told her about the Sermon on the Mount, about living right, doing good and other great and wonderful moral truths.
The woman looked distraught and said: "You don't understand. I have lived a sinful and wicked life. Now, I am dying. It is too late for me to do all of that. Don't you have a message for a woman like me?"
The preacher realized that he did not really have any message for the dying woman. And then he remembered the story of her mother before he came to a liberal seminary about the Savior who shed His blood, about His death on the cross for sinners.
He then told her about the cross, about grace and the free offer of the salvation that is in Christ to unworthy sinners. And there, the dying woman received peace with God and was marvelously saved. It was at that time too that the preacher himself got saved.
The only hope for sinners like us is the Lord Jesus and what He did on the cross.
