Christ wants to cover our sins, but He also wants to take them away. He wants to clothe us in His righteousness, but He also wants to take shape in us, to be the High Priest who reconciles us with God, and to be the King who rules over and in us. He suffered and died to atone for our sins, but He also rose and ascended into heaven that He might live in us and we in Him and so we might walk in a new life. - C.F.W. Walther, *God Grant It!* p. 888
