 JANUARY 15 The Glory of the Cross |
PRAYER. Praised be Jesus Christ Who has redeemed the world by His Life, Death, and Resurrection! |
|
PERSONS in the Cross of Christ see
the Atonement for sin cannot choose but
glory in it. Its mysteriousness makes
them glory in it the more. They boast of it
before men and Angels, before an unbelieving
world, and before fallen spirits.
They confess this miracle of grace and cherish it in their creed, though it gains them but contempt. |
