September 25 Being justified by faith, we have peace with God.
Conscience accuses no longer.
Judgment now decides for the sinner instead of against him. God must change his nature before one soul, for whom Jesus was a substitute, can ever by any possibility suffer the lash of the law. My faith rests not upon what I am, or shall be, or feel, or know, but in what Christ is, in what he has done, and in what he is now doing for me. On the lion of justice the fair maid of hope rides like a queen. From Charles H. Spurgeon's Morning and Evening .
