A wide gap often exists between who we are in Christ and how we live or perceive ourselves, even as we are singing with our church. We easily fall prey to the lie that we can come to Jesus because we’ve been obedient. Because we’ve been faithful in reading our Bible. Keep our anger in check. Pray. Resist temptation. Evangelize. We feel out of place around others on Sunday mornings who seem so much more “fit” to be in God’s presence.
But outside of Christ, no one is ever “fit” to come to God, who justifies the ungodly, not the godly (Rom. 4:5). Jesus came to call sinners, not the righteous (Mt. 9:13). He invites those who “labor and are heavy laden” to come to him, not those who are breezing through life (Mt. 11:28).
This is at the heart of "O Come All You Unfaithful."
