It lays our sins on Jesus. It takes off the rags of our own righteousness and puts on us Christ's righteousness. It covers us with a robe provided only by Christ. Consequently, many conclude that men are saved without works of any kind. But let no one deceive us.
Works are the fruit of faith.
No whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of . . . Christian experience without a sound morality is phony. Faith without a godly life, that never touches or changes the conduct of a man, is lifeless. True faith walks in the path of the Ten Commandments. Faith that works is kind, not selfish, obedient, not disobedient.
