All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
— Isaiah 53:6
And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;
— Colossians 2:13
And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
— 2 Corinthians 5:18-19
One Drop of Redeeming Love, by Horatius Bonar.
Christ died for the ungodly. Romans 5:6
While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8
When we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to Him through the death of his Son. Romans 5:10
O worldly professor, if you would enter Heaven at last, then you must begin at the cross of Christ. Count all your good works as dung and dross before the holy God. Fling away your vain hopes, and self-righteous confidences.
Give up your fond idea of securing both earth and Heaven. Go straight to Calvary. There be crucified to the world, and the world to you, by the cross of Christ. Galatians 6:14
Go at once to Him who died for the ungodly, and drink into His love. One draught, nay, one drop of redeeming love, will forever quench your love of sin, and be the death of that worldliness which threatens to be your eternal ruin.
May you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should—how wide, how long, how high, and how deep His love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Ephesians 3:18-19
