Believing that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and is our Savior and Redeemer who has made restitution for our sin, and cleanses us of them while conquering death through the power of His life, brings the greatest blessing ever pronounced upon us. Once we, who now believe in Christ, were lawless creatures; not merely disobedient of man’s laws, which could be forgiven by repaying our debt to men, but of God’s law of which we ourselves were unable to make restitution by works, or our own ability.
