No Exceptions

Know any people who think they are just too far gone for Jesus? Maybe they think their sins are too big or their lives too ugly. They think God couldn't possibly save them. They think God is probably mad or that He has given up on them by now or that He's too holy to want them around. Is that you? See for yourself:

"If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by confessing with your mouth that you are saved. As the Scriptures tell us, 'Anyone who trusts in him will never be disgraced.' Jew and Gentile are the same in this respect. They have the same Lord, who gives generously to all who call on him. For “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
-Romans 10:9-13 (NLT)

God delights in saving the unlovable, the lost and the ones who think they could never be saved. To think that God couldn't save you because you're too far gone is to say, "I'm bigger than God. I can do something so evil that He can't forgive me. I have more power than God." The truth is that everyone is hopelessly lost without Him and every sin is repulsive to Him. But Jesus died for everyone...NO EXCEPTIONS. Anyone who calls out to Him will be saved. Yes, even you...even me.
