The nearer Christ comes to a heart, the more it becomes conscious of its guilt; it will either ask for his mercy and find peace, or it will turn against Him because it is not yet ready to give up its sinfulness. Thus He will separate the good from the bad, the wheat from the chaff. Man’s reaction to this Divine Presence will be the test: either it will call out all the opposition of egotistic natures or galvanize them into a generation and a resurrection.
