2.  Everyone who needs to be saved, can be saved.


            Aren’t you glad for that? Everyone who needs to be saved can be
            saved. Understand this:

            Man is a sinner by nature.


                   Psalm 51:5 - “Behold I was shapen in iniquity,
                   and in sin did my mother conceive me.”

            Man is a sinner by practice. You know that quite well don’t you?


                   John 3:19 - “And this is the condemnation, that
                   light is come into the world, and men love
                   darkness rather than light, because their deeds
                   were evil.”


            Man is a sinner by choice.


                   John 2:17-18 - “For God sent not his Son into the
                   world to condemn the world, but that the world
                   through Him might be saved. He that believeth on
                   Him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is
                   condemned already, because he hath not believed
                   in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”


            So man is a sinner by nature. He is a sinner by practice. And he’s a
            sinner by choice. You see -- either you choose for God -- or choose
            against God.

            It’s kind of like an election. God votes for you. The devil votes
            against you. But how you vote determines the election.


            The truth is -- everyone who needs to be saved can be saved. This
            is one of the most important truths ever discovered as a child of
            God -- that regardless of how bad a person may be or appear to be
            -- everyone who needs to be saved can be saved.
