D.L. Moody emphasizes the contrast between human perceptions and divine
truths, illustrating that our self-assessments often fall short of God's
standards. He points out that while we may think we are not as bad as
others, all have sinned and need redemption. Moody stresses that
salvation is not based on our works or efforts but solely on faith in
Jesus Christ. He also addresses misconceptions about God's love and the
reality of hell, urging listeners to recognize the necessity of being
born again to enter the kingdom of heaven.

WHAT MAN THINKS GOD SAYS I am not so bad as others There is no
difference, all have sinned. (Rom 3:22) I will do the best I can, then
God will make up the rest. Not of works, lest any man should boast.
(Eph. 2:9) I will try and merit a place in heaven. Except a man be born
again, he cannot see the kingdom of heaven. (John 3:3) I will make my
peace with God. Being justified by faith, we have peace with God. (Rom.
5:1) I will try and feel love to God. We love Him because He first loved
us. (1 John 4:19) I know God is love, therefore He will overlook my
sins. He that believeth not the Son, the wrath of God abideth on him.
(John 3:36) Perhaps there is no hell. The wicked shall be turned into
Hell. (Psalm 9:17)
