Setting the Record Straight

There is no salvation by balancing the records.

There is only salvation by canceling records.

The cancellation happened when the record of our deeds was nailed to the cross. Parchment was not nailed to the cross. Christ was. Christ became my damning record of bad (& good) deeds. He endured my damnation. He is my only hope. And faith in him is my only way to God.

~John Piper "Fifty Reasons Why Jesus Came to Die"
