Old Lutheran Quote of the Day

Wonderful, indeed, is the exhange Thou dost make; our sins Thou takest upon Thyself, and Thy righteousness Thou dost impute to us; the death due us for our transgressions Thou dost Thyself suffer, and in turn dost bestow eternal life upon us. Therefore I can no longer doubt Thy grace or despair on account of my sins. - Johann Gerhard, *Sacred Meditations* X
