Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
(Isaiah 55:6)But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
(Matthew 9:13) Full life for witness
The author was an intellectual believer in invisible deities and did not see the need for Christ in his life. However, through a series of crises and the persistent message of Christian messengers, he began to read the Bible and realized the true face of his sins and rebellion. He repented and surrendered to Christ, experiencing a complete restoration of everything he had lost. The author encourages readers to come to Christ for freedom and love, without waiting for crises to humble themselves.
