All those overwhelming debts, which would have sunk us to the lowest hell, have been discharged by the cross.

It is done\u2014complete, perfect. It needs no addition; it can never suffer any diminution.<\/p><p>This is the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world that we celebrate today and serve His Church together through Empowering Action.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Let the following commentary on the verse above by the Prince of Preachers, Charles Spurgeon, bring us a renewed gratitude for what Good Friday represents in the life of a believer: Hear it, Christians.
