He made Him...to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
2 Corinthians 5:21
When we come to Christ, the Bible says He imparts His righteousness to us. Once we were sinners in God's eyes; now He sees us as righteous because of Christ. Did we deserve it?
No. Did we earn it? No. It is all of grace-all because of God's undeserved favor toward us in Christ. We can never win God's favor by our deeds, no matter how good we are. Only Christ can save us. Thank God that you now stand before Him, clothed in the perfect righteousness of Christ!
-Billy Graham-
May the love of Christ be
with us today and always!
