David a man who
lusted, committed adultery, and murder, prayed this prayer before The
Lord.
Psalm 51:1-19
KJV (A prayer of repentance.)
1 Have mercy upon me, O God,
according to thy loving kindness: according unto the multitude of thy
tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
2 Wash me throughly from mine
iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
3 For I acknowledge my
transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.
4 Against thee, thee only, have I
sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be
justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.
5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity;
and in sin did my mother conceive me.
6 Behold, thou desirest Truth in the
inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know
wisdom.
7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall
be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
8 Make me to hear joy and gladness;
that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.
9 Hide thy face from my sins, and
blot out all mine iniquities.
10 Create in me a clean heart, O
God; and renew a right spirit within me.
11 Cast me not away from thy
presence; and take not thy Holy Spirit from me.
12 Restore unto me the joy of thy
salvation; and uphold me with thy free Spirit.
13 Then will I teach transgressors
thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.
14 Deliver me from blood guiltiness,
O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of
thy righteousness.
15 O Lord, open thou my lips; and my
mouth shall shew forth thy praise.
16 For thou desirest not sacrifice;
else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering.
17 The sacrifices of God are a
broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not
despise.
18 Do good in thy good pleasure unto
Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem.
19 Then shalt thou be pleased with
the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt
offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.
And The Lord heard
David's prayer and forgave him.
Romans 2:5-11

for yourself. For a day of anger is coming, when God’s righteous
judgment will be revealed.

to what they have done.
7 He will give eternal life to those
who keep on doing good, seeking after the glory and honor and

for the Gentile.

it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.

floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it
fell: and great was the fall of it.

now, while there is time...”

of The Lord shall be saved.
John 3:14-18 KJV
14 "...The Son Of Man be lifted up:
15 That whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have
eternal life.
16 For God so loved the world, that He gave His Only Begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have
everlasting life.
17 For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world;
but that the world through Him might be saved.
18 He that believeth on Him is not condemned: but he that
believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in
the name of The Only Begotten Son Of God.

Christs') book of Life.

And whosoever was not found written in the book of Life was cast
into the lake of fire.
