I don't find saving grace being offered to people who are sick in a hospital room.

That saving drug is given to a corpse. The analogy is that fallen man is like a man who can't swim and

he's cast adrift into the ocean. He's gone under twice already. He's going now down under for the third time.

His head is already under the water. He's got one arm stretched out and only the top part of

his fingers are above the surface of the water and unless somebody throws a life preserver

and they better throw it accurately, that preserver has to come right up against his hand.

He most certainly will perish forever and so God throws the life preserver right against his

fingers but if that man doesn't grasp the life preserver on his own strength

he will drown. See that's not what I find in scripture. I don't find

saving grace being offered to people who are sick unto death in a hospital room.

That saving drug is given and administered to a corpse, ladies and gentlemen, who is already pronounced dead

who cannot on his own strength even respond to the gospel. What God did for you if you're in Christ is that after you went

down the third time and you were stone cold dead at the bottom of the sea, God the

Holy Spirit dove into the water, picked you up out of the water, took you up on

the shore and resuscitated you and brought you alive

again through the power of his creation.

You are a new creation in Christ. And that's Grace.
