Broken, Humble and Repentent - Proverbs 15: 8

All persons have sinful hearts ever since this world one day fallen mankind had no answer to this no matter the miles they have ran But God has provided a remedy for only a perfect sacrifice will do to remove sin and produce righteousness His only son Jesus Christ will be true This sacrifice God accepts for sinners when they are accompanied by three traits they must be broken with no hope in themselves so desperately in wait They realise only the eternal one is sufficient to piece them together in God's shape but being humble is also really key bringing a repentant spirit up your spiritual tree So God brings through Jesus His son His way of salvation open to all just needs to be broken, humble, and repent for God to speak and you hear His call ("The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord, but the prayer of the upright is acceptable to him." Proverbs 15: 8 (ESV) Quote: " A person who's been sinful during the week can be accepted through the sacrifice when it's accompanied by a broken, humble, repentant heart." - John Piper)
