How divinely glorious!
"For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, in Whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins!" Colossians 1:13-14
The true believer hates and resists those sins which once he loved — and renounces that world which once so much enamored him.
How divinely glorious is the religion of Jesus!
Old things pass away — and behold, all things become new!
It turns the lion, into the lamb.
it turns the desert heart, into the garden of the Lord.
It converts the impure and savage heart, into a habitation fit for the mild and holy Dove.
It restores the Hell-bent sinner to the divine favor.
It transforms him into the divine image.
It redeems him from the depths of damnation.
It raises him to the highest seats in glory!What tongue can speak, or what heart conceive, the richness and extent of divine redemption!
"In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace which He lavished on us!" Ephesians 1:7-8
"Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift!" 2 Corinthians 9:15
