What believest thou concerning "the forgiveness of sins"? That God, for the sake of Christ's satisfaction, will no more remember my sins, neither my corrupt nature, against which I have to struggle all my life long; [177] but will graciously impute to me the righteousness of Christ, [178] that I may never be condemned before the tribunal of God. [179] Footnotes: [177] 1 John 2:2; 1 John 1:7; 2:Cor. 5:19 , 21. [178] Jer. 31:34; Ps. 103:3, 4; Ps. 103:10, 12; Mic. 7:19, 23-25. |
