Jesus will take you as you are, so come as you are

There are many people who believe that they have to "get themselves right" before they commit their life to Christ. If we had the power to "get ourselves right" then there would have been no need for Christ to die on the cross for our sins. If an individual is born with a disease then they have to live with that disease until they are cured. Sin is a disease (condition) that we are all born into. Many times we do not realize something is wrong until we first see/experience what is right. As I began to hear the gospel being preached around the age of 22, then I began to realize that I had a condition and the only cure for that condition was to release myself (mind, heart, will) into the will (plan) of Christ. I had to realize that I did not have the power to cure(heal) myself. There are many generational curses that people struggle with. Surgery, medicine, and counseling all have their limits in regards to the effect they can have on a person.

Sin does not get better with time, it just continues to eat away at the fabric (substance) of your life as time goes on. Just as bleach eats away at certain material(s); sin eats away at the soul(mind, heart, and will). There are some vehicles that you have to buy "as is" , and Jesus does not discriminate in regards to who gives their life to him. I am a witness that he will take you "as you are" so come as you are. The blood of Jesus was shed to give us the opportunity to "come as we are." Come as you are refers to your current mindset, your current heart condition, and also the current condition of sin that we were all born into.
