It's the law - you may not approve of it, but that doesn't make any difference. The first thing to remember about being saved is that salvation is a personal matter. If you were sick all the medicine I might take wouldn't do you any good. Some persons have lived manly or womanly lives, and they lack but one thing - open confession of the Lord Jesus Christ. Some men think, that they must come to him in a certain way - that they must be stirred by emotion or something like that.
Some people have a deeper conviction of sin before they are converted than after they are converted.
With some it is the other way. Some know when they are converted and others don't. Some people are emotional. Some are demonstrative. Some will cry easily.
