Ray Comfort shares with John on the Huntington Beach pier.
Watch how Ray uses the Law first before Grace, making it possible for John a man thinking he was a Christian to see "why" he needs the Savior, this is what helped me, I thought I was a Christian because I said a little pray as a young kid and asked JESUS into my heart, but I really never understood what sin really was until I went though the Law of the Ten Commandments and then I really saw how sinful I was and why I needed the Savior too...
I hope you'll watch this and examine your own hearts."Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us to Christ, that we may be justified by faith."-Galatians 3:24
It would be so sad to thing you were a Christian then when you died to find out you were really deceived.
"Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." Matthew 7:21-23

So there will be some on that day that will be calling Him LORD, but are not truly saved how can this be?
There will be some on that day that O yes, I believe in a man named JESUS, but truly never understood just how bad of a sinner he/she was so did not truly repent of their sin and did not really see a real need of a Savior and why JESUS had to die on the Cross, but not only die on that Cross, JESUS had to live a Righteous life something we could not do then he had to suffer for our sins, he payed our fine for our sins
You may say then what sins, I'm a pretty good person?
Well I'll let the Word of GOD tell you what sin is.
"Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law."
1 John 3:4
"Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin."
Romans 3:20
Sin is the breaking of the Ten Commandments that acts like a mirror.
We look at our self in a mirror to see how we look on the out side, so we can clean our face.
But with the Law of the Ten Commandments it not only takes a look of our outside, it goes deep into the inside of what is in our heart and it shows us that we need a cleaning of not only the outside, but a deep cleaning of the inside of our heart it is of the highest importance to each one of us that we know our conditions. It then become a great moment for then we understand the nature of our fall and the consequences of sin (transgression) and then our need for the SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST!!
"Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us to Christ, that we may be justified by faith."-Galatians 3:24
"It is appointed for man once to die, but after this the judgment."-Hebrews 9:27
Jesus said to him, "I am the way the truth and the life: no man comes to the Father, but by Me."-John 14:6
"Jesus answered,..."unless you repent, you too will all perish"-Luke 13:3
So today is the day of salvation.
If you have not ever just looked at yourself though the Ten Commandments, please do so today.
If you then have not truly repented and put your faith ( 100 % ) in JESUS CHRIST do so today, everyday 150,000 people die and we do not know if today will be or day just as the 150,000 that died yesterday though they would have had another day, don't be a foolish person thinking we have all the time in the world to get right with GOD, because you may not get the Chance. GOD may just lose patience with you and end your life.
"But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee"
Luke 12:20
