The personal worker should read th is passage over and over un til he has indelibly impressed upon his m ind the picture. F ifth ,— Impress upon th e person being dealt w ith th a t the g reatest sin of all is rejection of Jesus Christ as Saviour and Lord (Heb. 10 :29 ) “Of how much sorer punishment, sup pose ye, shall he be thought worthy who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace.” (John 3:36) “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life; and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.” Sixth,— Seek to produce th e convic tion th a t salvation has no t only been accomplished by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ on th e cross, b u t th a t th is sal vation is a t th e ir disposal.

If possible, a t th is stage, have a word of prayer, ask ing th e Holy Spirit to compel convic tion and incline the h ea rt to decide at once. A good illu stration to use is found in Matt. 2.5:5: “While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.” b u t all must eventually wake up (Rev. 6:17) “ For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall he able to stand?1’ BACK NUMBERS WANTED!
