Multitudes

 
"Many will be lost while hoping and desiring to be Christians."

    Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision:
Joel 3:14

"You desire to give yourself to Him, but you are weak
*in moral power,
*in slavery to doubt,
*and controlled by the habits of your life of sin.

Your promises and resolutions are like ropes of sand.

You cannot control
*your thoughts,
*your impulses,
*your affections.

The knowledge of your broken promises and forfeited pledges

weakens your confidence in your own sincerity, and causes you to feel that God cannot accept you;
---but you need not despair.---
What you need to understand is the true force of the will. This is the governing power in the nature of man, the power of decision, or of choice." Steps To Christ p.47,48 E.G.W.
