A wanted ad for an engineer looked like this:
* Candidate must possess at least a Bachelor's/College Degree, Engineering (Civil) or equivalent
* At least 3 years of working experience
* Must have passed the FE Exam and currently hold EI or EIT
* Knowledge and use of Microsoft Office, CADD and GIS software a plus
Reading the qualifications, not many will surely qualify for the job. Certain standards must be reached and certain achievements must be accomplished in order to land the job.
A lot of people think like this about salvation. They think that in order to be saved they must, first of all, achieve and accomplish a lot of things in order for God to save them. Nothing could be further from the truth.
You see, based on the Bible, a wanted ad detailing the qualifications of a sinner in order to be saved looks like this:
* The applicant must be a sinner. Any kind of sinner---the moral sinner, the religious sinner and the immoral sinner.
* The applicant must realize that he or she is helpless and powerless in saving himself or herself.
* The applicant must be repentant and trusting or relying on the Savior and what He did on the cross alone for salvation.
If you possess the foregoing qualifications, then, praise God, welcome to the company...the company of saved sinners!
