The best news we’ve heard all week…
Seriously, this is what you’ve been waiting to hear:
From Bruce McRae’s introduction to his translation of Walter Marshall’s The Gospel Mystery of Sanctification:
“Grasp the main idea, which he expresses over and over again, relying upon his vast knowledge of Scripture: ‘You are more sinful than you can imagine! The doctrine of Original Sin is true! You cannot reform your own flesh! You cannot become a better person by your own strength no matter how hard you try! But cheer up! If you are a Christian, you have come into union with Christ. Through faith in Jesus Christ you are forgiven. Through faith in Jesus Christ you are sanctified and made holy. Through Christ, you are new creation! The Holy Spirit lives in you! Therefore, pursue the life of faith in Christ with all diligence!”
