This is a faithful saying, and it’s worthy of all acceptance, that “Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners.” And that is a very important verse of Scripture. That He came into the world to save sinners. He didn’t come in as the greatest teacher; He was that. He didn’t come in to set an example; He did that. But He came into the world to save sinners. And when you give a testimony, make sure you tell the folk not how wonderful you are today and of all of your accomplishments. You tell them that you were a sinner and that Christ saved you. That’s the important thing.
