I
am an outcast of society on earth.
How can I hope to be accepted
into the
society of heaven?
`None
have fallen so low, none are so vile, but that they may find
deliverance in Jesus. No cry from a soul in need, though it fail of
utterance in words, will be unheeded. Those who consent to enter
into covenant with God are not left to the power of Satan or to the
infirmity of their own nature.' (DA258)
`However
wretched may be the specimens of humanity that men spurn and turn aside
from, they are not too low, too wretched, for the notice and love of God.
Christ longs to have care-worn, weary, oppressed human beings come to Him.
He longs to give them the light and joy and peace that are to be found
nowhere else. The greatest sinners are the objects of His deep, earnest
pity and love. He sends His Holy Spirit to yearn over them with
tenderness, seeking to draw them to Himself.' (COL226)
`Angels are ever present where
they are most needed, with those who have the hardest battles with
self to fight, and whose surroundings are the most discouraging.
Weak and trembling souls who have many objectionable traits of
character are their special charge. That which selfish hearts would
regard as humiliating service, ministering to those who are wretched
and in every way inferior in character, is the work of the pure,
sinless beings from the courts above.' (MH105)
