Psalms 51:1 Have mercy upon me, O God, According to Your lovingkindness; According to the multitude of Your tender mercies, blot out my transgressions.
Isaiah 48:17 Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, The Holy One of Israel: " I am the Lord your God, who teaches you to profit, who leads you by the way you should go.
Romans 121:3 For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.

"Behold, I am vile."
Job 40:4
One cheering word, poor lost sinner, for thee! You think you must not come to
God because YOU are vile. Now, there is not a saint living on earth but has been
made to feel that he is vile. If Job, and Isaiah, and Paul were all obliged to
say "I am vile," oh, poor sinner, wilt thou be ashamed to join in the same
confession? If divine grace does not eradicate all sin from the believer, how
dost thou hope to do it thyself? and if God loves His people while they are yet
vile, dost thou think thy vileness will prevent His loving thee? Believe on
Jesus, thou outcast of the world's society! Jesus calls thee, and such
as thou art. Job 40:4
"Not the righteous, not the righteous;
Sinners, Jesus came to call."
Even now say, "Thou hast died for sinners; I am a sinner, Lord Jesus,
sprinkle Thy blood on me"; if thou wilt confess thy sin thou shalt find pardon.
If, now, with all thy heart, thou wilt say, "I am vile, wash me," thou shalt be
washed now. If the Holy Spirit shall enable thee from thy heart to cry Sinners, Jesus came to call."
Just as I am, without one plea
But that Thy blood was shed for me,
And that thou bidd'st me come to Thee,
O Lamb of God, I come!"
thou shalt rise from reading this morning's portion with all thy sins
pardoned; and though thou didst wake this morning with every sin that man hath
ever committed on thy head, thou shalt rest to-night accepted in the Beloved;
though once degraded with the rags of sin, thou shalt be adorned with a robe of
righteousness, and appear white as the angels are. For "now," mark it,
"Now is the accepted time." If thou "believest on Him who justifieth
the ungodly thou art saved." Oh! may the Holy Spirit give thee saving faith in
Him who receives the vilest. But that Thy blood was shed for me,
And that thou bidd'st me come to Thee,
O Lamb of God, I come!"
