Salvation: BETTER NOW THAN EVER

A young man, who had rejected many calls from the Lord, was on his death bed. The minister exhorted him to seek the Lord, but he insisted that he had refused so many opportunities that he was ashamed to come. Said he, "Don t you think it would be mean of me to come now?" The minister replied, "Yes, it is a fearful thing that you have done, and it is a shame that you did not come sooner, but I think it would be more wicked never to come. It would be better to come now than never." After some time the young man seemed greatly moved because of the Lord's willingness to receive him, even then. He seemed to definitely trust the Lord, and passed on praising Him for His great mercy.
