Lost

By: Ravi Zacharias-From his talk The lostness of man part 4 of 4

“Man is not just unethical, he is lost and dead.

If a man is only lost in guilt, what I have given you is bad news;

but he is lost in sin, and our great priviliege is to tell him we have a Saviour.

The biggest difference between Jesus Christ and ethical and moral teachers

who have been deified by man is that

the moralist came to make bad people good.

Jesus came to make dead people live.

East or West, North or South, ancient or modern,

the problem is the same and the solution is the same.

Once we understand the heinousness of sin,

we will gain a deep and lasting gratitude for God.

I was 17 years old on a bed of suicide in Delhi when I gave my life to Jesus Christ,

I was not a bad man becoming a good man,

I was a dying man who was now going to live for a cause that was greater than he was.”

-Ravi Zacharias
