When a person is being saved, before they're saved as an unbeliever, the Spirit begins to draw. There's the effectual call to salvation. Before regeneration, faith, and repentance, the call of the Spirit is effectual drawing. In this drawing, a person becomes profoundly aware that God is holy and that they are a wretch, walking underneath his just condemnation. And this fear begins to drive them to the cross. And that fear is not cruel, it is not mean-spirited, it's grace.

00:00:30.000 When a person is being saved, before they're saved, as an unbeliever, the Spirit begins to draw.
00:00:38.360 There's the effectual call to salvation.
00:00:41.060 Before regeneration, faith, and repentance, the call of the Spirit, effectual drawing.
00:00:47.060 In this drawing, a person becomes profoundly aware that God is holy and that they're a wretch
00:00:57.220 and that they are a dead man walking underneath his just condemnation.
00:01:03.980 And this fear begins to drive them to the cross.
00:01:07.520 And this fear is not cruel, it's not mean-spirited, it's grace.
00:01:14.280 Remember Amazing Grace by John Newton?
00:01:16.800 You can probably recite it by heart, but most people professing Christ today
00:01:20.060 don't even have a clue what it actually means.
00:01:23.200 Remember the line?
00:01:23.920 towards grace that taught my heart to fear
00:01:27.620 and grace my fears relieved.
00:01:32.880 How many people is this their testimony?
00:01:36.840 Not just grace made me happy and gave me purpose.
00:01:39.960 That's most people's testimony.
00:01:41.940 Or even worse than that,

00:01:49.100 No, grace, not the cruelty of God.
00:01:53.920 grace of God, his grace, his love, his mercy made me miserable and taught my heart to fear.
00:02:01.980 Made me recognize that I was a condemned sinner underneath his just wrath, that I was a dead man
