Repentance
God hath nowhere in the Scripture required any worthiness in the creature before believing in Christ… None ever received Christ, embraced Christ, and obtained mercy and pardon from Christ, but unworthy souls… If the soul will keep off from Christ till it be worthy, it will never close with Christ, it will never embrace Christ. [PRASD]
