“If any man would come after Me, let him deny himself” i.e., “deny his right to himself.” Jesus never swept men off their feet in ecstasy, He always talked on the line that left a man’s will in the ascendant until he saw where he was going. It is impossible for a man to give up his right to himself without knowing he is doing it.
Naturally, a man regards his right to himself as the finest thing he has, yet it is the last bridge that prevents Jesus Christ having His way in a life.
The approaches to Jesus are innumerable; the result of coming to Him can be only one—the dethroning of my right to myself, or I stop short somewhere.
