I Have a Great Savior
Although my memory’s fading, I remember two things very clearly: I am a great sinner and Christ is a great Savior.

Weak Faith
A weak faith can lay hold on a strong Christ.
You Are My Righteousness
Lord Jesus, You are my righteousness, I am your sin. You took on you what was mine; yet set on me what was yours. You became what you were not, that I might become what I was not.
Martin Luther (1483-1546)
PRAISE THE LORD!
In our fluctuations of feelings, it is well to remember that Jesus admits no change in His affections; your heart is not the compass Jesus saileth by.
The Senselessness of the Cross without the Resurrection
The Crucifixion loses its meaning without the Resurrection. Without the Resurrection the death of Christ was only the heroic death of a noble martyr; with the Resurrection, it is the atoning death the Son of God. It shows that death to be of sufficient value to cover our sins, for it was the sacrifice of the Son of God.”
R. A. Torrey
Adoption through Resurrection
We are adopted into God’s family through the resurrection of Christ from the dead in which he paid all our obligations to sin, the law, and the devil, in whose family we once lived. Our old status lies in his tomb. A new status is ours through his resurrection.
Christ Arose!
Upon a Life I Have Not Lived, Upon a Death I Did Not Die
Upon a Life I have not lived,
Upon a Death I did not die,
Another’s Life; Another’s Death,
I stake my whole eternity.
Not on the tears which I have shed,
Not on the sorrows I have known,
Another’s tears; Another’s griefs,
On these I rest, on these alone.

Sitting at the Foot of the Cross
May we sit at the foot of the cross; and there learn what sin has done, what justice has done, what love has done.
