I AM going to tell you of my conversion. I thought I was free from the consequences of sin, from the judgment of the lost, because I was not an open sinner; indeed, as I went to church and chapel like other people, I thought I was going to heaven, as most persons think will be the case with them, whether they are converted to God or not. But all the while I was on the broad road that leads to destruction, and on the way to the bottomless pit. When God showed me that His Son, Jesus, my Lord, had borne all my sins on Calvary, I saw what it is to be a sinner.
Yes, the cross of Christ shows us how bad we are, for we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead. A., per R. S. McF.
