Old Lutheran Quote of the Day

Wonderful, indeed, is the exchange 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. -- Blessed Johann Gerhard, Sacred Meditation X
