    LESSON TWELVE Man’s Need of a Saviour

    1. Man is unable to save himself from sin and death. Psalm 89:48; 22:29; 1 Kings 8:46; Proverbs 20:9; Ecclesiastes 7:20; Romans 8:7; Jeremiah 13:23.TDOC 33.5

    2. A new nature must be imparted to man. John 3:3, 5, 6; 2 Peter 1:3, 4; Galatians 6:15; John 10:10.TDOC 34.1

    3. There is only one Savior. Isaiah 43:11; 45:21, 22; Acts 4:10-12.TDOC 34.2

    4. Jesus Christ is an all-sufficient Savior. Matthew 1:21; Luke 2:11; Acts 13:23; John 4:42; 1 Timothy 1:15; 1 John 4:14; Hebrews 7:25.TDOC 34.3

    NOTES: A present Savior needed

    “Is not the deepest religious question, after all, for each man this: whether there be in Christ a present Savior, who can cover me now with the robe of his righteousness? No historic research, no exposition of the doctrines of an Old World teacher, removes the burden of the friendlessness of my sin-stained soul in a universe ruled by a holy God. If by your scholarship you so make to live again the classic scenes in which the Nazarene moved and taught that I am made painfully conscious of the long centuries that intervening divide him from me: then all the more, if you would secure the abiding of my faith in him, you must let me see how he can still reach me, and stand for me, the wings of his affluent personality outstretched to cover me.”TDOC 34.4

    Deeper answers to deeper

    “The deeper this sense of personal sinfulness, deeper always the need of a personal Redeemer!” Read the chapter, “The Sinner’s Need of Christ,” in “Steps to Christ.”TDOC 34.5
