They harden themselves. I wouldn't mind being a church member, and I don't mind being converted. God is not going to give me a heart of flesh, God is not going to plant a holy disposition in me, God is not going to start the work of making me like His Son. No, I will not be changed, so I will fight this business. That is how men talk today.
Men harden themselves.
I remember in a certain city after I had brought a message one morning in an evangelistic campaign, I was shaking hands with some people, and I felt something pulling on my coat. Now the little girl didn't know exactly what it meant to be saved, but she knew that life in her home was hell, and she knew something needed to happen to her daddy. She was pitiful and she just broke my heart. Her mother soon came and she began to sob, and she took the little girl out of my arms. Well, that afternoon over that radio I stopped about the middle of my sermon and asked the audience to pardon me.
