Housebroken—before people<\/p>\n
Heartbroken—before God<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Housebroken—I make a good impression on people, who think I’m a pretty good person.<\/p>\n
Heartbroken—“God, be merciful to me, a sinner.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Housebroken—I do not curse, steal, cheat, lie [except for now].\u00a0 I’m better than a lot of other people.<\/p>\n
Heartbroken—“All our righteousness is like filthy rags.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Housebroken—I am qualified for church membership (even leadership) in good standing.<\/p>\n
Heartbroken—“Not everyone who says, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Housebroken—I have the best of both worlds:\u00a0 I live very comfortably, will retire comfortably, and still give a lot money to church and charity.<\/p>\n
Heartbroken—“Sell everything you have, give it all away, and follow Jesus.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Oh, no, that would break my heart.\u00a0 I couldn’t do that.<\/p>\n
