What abounding grace has been thus displayed to a creature so completely vile;so destitute of all ground of hope or claim in himself!What an amount of guilt has He pardoned! It is impossible to overstate this.My original debasement,my wayward youth,my rejection of His love,my rebellion against His authority,my forgetfulness of His goodness,my backslidings from His way,my inconsistent profession,my vain and sinful example,the wickedness of my unconverted state,the errors of my renewed state. Alas! every day and every act brings up its separate testimony. And all condemn me!But He has freely pardoned!He has blotted out this whole fearful record!He will remember it no more!"But where sin abounded--grace did much more abound." Romans 5:20
As we go through this Christmas season we should realize why we call Jesus our Savior.
The baby in the manger came to this earth to die for you and me. He died so that we may live. He gave His all so that we could come before the almighty God one day as a pardoned creature. When we realize how bad off we are without a savior, we will look at the birth of Christ in a different light.
Merry CHRISTmas,
