Guilty, vile, helpless

“If Jehovah ‘spared not His Own Son’, how much less would he have spared guilty, worthless men if He had dealt with us ‘after our sins’ and rewarded us ‘according to our iniquities?’” –Charles Spurgeon

“Guilty, vile, and helpless we
Spotless Lamb of God was He;
Full atonement, can it be?
Hallelujah! What a Savior!”
(from “Man of Sorrows” by Philip Bliss)

“And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh hath He quickened together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses…” (Colossians 2:13)

So thankful today that I didn’t get what I deserve.
