Many Kinds of Sinners

All men confess, at least to some degree, that they are sinners. But I have found there are many kinds of sinners.

There are reformed sinners, or as one preacher put it, “ex-sinners.” These are folks who will confess to some very serious sins in their past, but their testimony is that they have overcome them. They used to drink, do drugs, cheat, covet, steal, curse, etc.

There are theological sinners. These folk hold tenaciously to the doctrine of total depravity. With loud testimony they declare themselves to be worthless sinners. Strangely, though, they do not seem to have any shame over their sinfulness, but even take some pride in the fact that they acknowledge their sin.

There are legal sinners. These folks know their sin by virtue of the law, both as written on stone and on the heart. They lament their sin, and wish they could be rid of it. Since they see their sin as a violation of a commandment, the only remedy they can see is to begin keeping the commandments. For all their knowledge of sin, they fail to grasp the one essential piece of knowledge about our sin: there is nothing we can do to put it away.

It would be useless for us to search our hearts to determine what kind of sinner we are. The truth is we will find elements of each of these sinners in us to this very day. There is only one way to know if we have come to a knowledge of sin that leads to salvation: has our knowledge of our sin prompted us to plead to God for mercy. “God be merciful to me, a sinner,” is the cry of every Holy Spirit taught sinner. No amount of guilty burdens, moral reformations or theological confessions can take the place of a sinner’s cry for mercy.
