"Salvation is of the LORD." -Jonah 2:9

Also, those that are in Him will also appear without sin.  His Father will say again, " Well done!"   And it's written,  "By so much was Jesus made a Surety of a better testament" (Hebrews 7:22). Friends, Christ our Surety is all of my righteousness and justification before God. Christ is all my salvation. He is my comfort and assurance. He is my motivation to obey God. And He is my hope of eternal life forever more. Christ is All to this poor sinner.   -brother Jim Casey
