OUR right to come to Jesus is full and clear.
It is irrespective of aught in us. It presupposes want and sin—nothing more. The invitation is wide and free, annexing no restriction, and enjoining no prerequisite. It does not fence itself round with conditions, as if fearful lest too many might avail themselves of it, or as if desirous to keep off the unqualified and unworthy. It makes no exceptions as to previous life or present character.
It welcomes the unworthiest. It forbids none. It leaves no room for suspicion on the part of any.
“Come, and come at once come, and boldly," is its message to all for” him that cometh unto me, I will in no wise cast out." His free love beckons and beseeches you. It does not stand on ceremony or insist on terms. It does not say, Whosoever comes in this manner, or that manner, according to this rule or that rule, but “Him that cometh I will in no wise cast out." “Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”
