From cover to cover, this principle is stated … whatever sins must die. How can the created say to the Creator, “Why have you made me thus?” It’s all up to God.
It’s as though God made His point in the Old Testament, but provided, according to His plan all along, a solution to the sin problem. Christ Jesus! Stanza two from Martin Luther’s great hymn, A Mighty Fortress is our God …
| Did we in our own strength confide, Our striving would be losing; Were not the right Man on our side, The Man of God’s own choosing: Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is He; |
Sin brings death; Christ Jesus brings life.
