What Must I Do?
Sinner, there is something you must do if you would be saved. There
was hope for this jailer because he saw himself a lost sinner and
came trembling to inquire, "What must I do?" Reader, you are a
sinner. The Word of God from beginning to end emphasizes that fact.
In Isaiah 53:6 we learn:
"ALL we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned EVERY ONE to his
own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us ALL."
We have all gone astray! The Lord is not content for sinners to be
left believing themselves good. In Romans the third chapter, how
positive, how certain is the Word of God that every man, woman and
child is a sinner!
"What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have
before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are ALL under sin;
As it is written, There is NONE righteous, NO, NOT ONE: There is
NONE that understandeth, there is NONE that seeketh after God. They
are ALL gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable;
there is NONE that doeth good, NO, NOT ONE"!--Rom. 3:9-12.
In verses 22 and 23 it is stated again that "there is no difference:
for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." That is
the reason Jesus said to Nicodemus in the third chapter of John,
"Marvel not that I said unto thee, YE MUST BE BORN AGAIN." And a
little later in the same chapter, verse 18, He said that the man who
has not believed in Jesus is already condemned.
Certainly these Scriptures must make it clear to every man who
believes the Word of God that he is a sinner, and until he has
believed in Christ and has been saved, he is a lost sinner and needs
saving. The heart is wrong, and only God can make that right. Then
if you want to be saved, you must admit in your own heart, "I am a
sinner. I am lost and need to be saved." No one ever was saved
without coming for salvation as a sinner.
