Ever caught yourself saying something like this, “A person like that could never come to know and have a relationship with Jesus”? Maybe we wouldn’t say that, but what about think it? I know that I have. I have let those words formulate and begin to posture themselves for vocal utterance. What do you think, do you think that there is anyone who is too far, too full of sin, too rebellious, too hard hearted, too difficult?
What do you think? Is there a co-worker, peer, classmate, relative, or spouse that is too “far gone” for the life changing, love giving, rebellious, authentic Jesus? Is it possible to be too filthy to ever be clean again?
Let’s talk…

I don’t think anyone is ever to far gone. Have I let fear sink in that they will pass without knowing Christ, sure, but it’s short lived. The amazing thing about Jesus is regardless of where you are, He can find you. There are people in my life who seem so far away from God, but I know I can’t save them, only Jesus can, but what I can do is pray that thier hearts will be softened and that thier eyes will be opened. All are worthy – thats what is so awesome, all are worthy. We just have to be willing to accept the love, and forgivness.
I would agree with Amanda. I dont think you ever could be too far gone, however God does warn us against harding our hearts. I am not sure when that kicks in and if that means you cannot return to God’s Grace. I am thankful for His grace in my life…
