"The Inn of Mercy"

Charles Spurgeon writes,
Pardon must be for the guilty. Forgiveness must be for the sinful...When men are not playing with words, or calling themselves 'miserable sinners,' out of mere compliment, I feel overjoyed to meet with them. I would be glad to talk all night to bona fide sinners. The inn of mercy never closes its doors upon such, neither weekdays nor Sunday. Our Lord Jesus did not die for imaginary sins, but His heart's blood was spilt to wash out deep crimson stains, which nothing else can remove. (All of Grace, 17)
Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners.

Sinners. We qualify! And salvation - this is our need!

May we never close the door that God has opened in Christ. May we come to God for mercy, through Jesus.
