God's Sufficient Provision For All Sinners - Luke 5: 32

Ever since Adam sinned at the fall
sin has entered every human alive
bringing spiritual death upon us all
lost forever no matter how we strive

God has worked out a perfect plan
sending His own dear son to rescue man
this would take Him to Calvary's cross
shedding His blood for His own clan

But man hates to accept God's truth
for the gospel declares God's great love
showing how great He loves sinners
will man believe God is enough?

God's call to sinners to repent
sounds forth to every listening ear
that Jesus is the only sure way
to receive forgiveness that's so dear

God's sufficient provision for all sinners
His call is still open to the day
salvation is found only in Jesus Christ
eternal life is the prize for all who obey

("I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance.”)
Luke 5: 32 (esv)

A fine testimony to us all Gordon. I once heard a preacher say that so many people think that church is where all the sanctimonious people go to show how righteous they are but it isn't a club for saints it's a hospital for sinners. I especially like the Scripture verse. Thanks bunches for sharing this one. A fave for me. God Bless, JB
