He who will lay hold of Christ's Righteousness need not wait one moment that he himself  may blot out his own sins. He need not wait until he has made a suitable repentance before he may take hold upon Christ's Righteousness. We do not understand the matter of salvation. It is just as simple as ABC. But we don't understand it.

If there is nothing more important in all the scriptures which point out definitely the way to heaven, we have it here in these words (John 3:1-16). They Tell Us what conversion is. They tell us what we must do in order to be saved. And, my friends, I want to tell you that this strikes directly at the root of the surface work in the religious world. It strikes directly at the idea that you can become a child of God without any particular change. The decided change wrought in us if the truth of God has found place in our hearts, for it has a sanctifying power upon life and upon character. When we see the fruits of righteousness in those who claim to have advanced truth, as we claim to have it, then there will be a course of action which testifies that we have learned of Christ.
