Forgiveness Works
Clay Curtis
If a man has ever truly heard the spirit of the law speak and beheld a glimpse of the depth of his sin, if he’s had fear strike his soul at the law’s condemning sentence, “Guilty! Guilty! Guilty!” then heard the Lord Jesus Christ whisper, “Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged” that man will spend the rest of his days trying to mortify that oppressive, old legalist that always wrestles to yoke him and his brethren. As he beholds that the kingdom of God is not meat and drink–he ceases to put confidence in the flesh (or emphasis on this flesh) but worships God in spirit and rejoices in Christ Jesus the Lord.
