O Lord, thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul; thou hast redeemed my life.
I see in the third song of Lamentations:
The hopelessness of the man under conviction (Vs 1-19)
The hope that humility brings (Vs 20-32)
The purpose of hopeless conviction (Vs 33-40)
The redemption that results in repentance (Vs 40-58)
The prayer of the redeemed (Vs 59-66)
I am trying to witness to a man right now who believes his religious actions can save him and therefore his unrighteous deeds can effect the loss of his salvation. I am attempting to bring him to understand it is impossible, utterly impossible, for him to be saved. He is hopelessly and impossibly lost. Unless the Lord gives him salvation. Then, if he is impossibly saved, it would mean it is impossible for him to ever be lost again.
Lamentations chapter three is an Old Testament demonstration of this biblical truth.
