"A mosquito K a beautiful thing

“Yes," replied Fanner C’orntossel, ! power Is provided,
"hut you can’t get enough of ’em
there to make any difference,"
j pllshed, the words of John 1 :29 nnd
| Hebrews 9:20 will supply the answer:
“Behold the Lamb of God which taketh
nway the sin of the world." “He up-
j neared to put away sin by the sacrifice
j of Himself." In Hint sanlflcial death,
I lie met find settled forever everything
involved in our sinning, “lie died, the
Just for the unjust." In view of that
dentil and by virtue of It. the divine
proclamation In Acts 18:88 Is made:
"Be It known unto you therefore, men
j find brethren, that through this man
i Is preached unto you the forgiveness
of sins: nnd by Him all that believe
litre Justified from all things." Guilt
Is removed through the vicarious
atonement of the Son of God. To-the
end of time this truth will be assailed
j with objections, but ns long ns the
| world stands, jhe awkward conscience
j will turn to It ns the one aud only
I appointed “city of refuge."
| In the second place, righteousness Is
j imputed to the believer in Christ.
I With all our self-righteousness, there
is a sense of condemnation because of
Its Insufficiency. The soul Instinctive-
ly feels^thls. After one has done the
l>est he can, there Is this sense of In-
! adequacy find Incompleteness, a feeling
j of shortcoming, and a conviction that
our own righteousness Is not valid be-
fore God even though it stands the
scrutiny of man. “All things are naked
nnd open before the eyes of Him with
whom we have to do." Motive ns well
as action Is seen by our God. Under
such conditions, nnd standing on one’s
own merits, It is Impossible to say:
“There Is therefore now no condemna-
tion." But Christ is made unto us
righteousness. He not * only removes
our guilt but reckons over to our ac-
count that divine righteousness which
by His life nnd death He wrought out
for us. It Is ns Luther said: "Lord
Jesus. I am thy sin, thou art my right-
eousness." Imputed righteousness is
clearly taught in the Bible. In one
chapter. Romans 4. the word “Imputed"
or “reckoned” Is used eleven times in
this connection. “Ahrnhntn believed
God nnd It was reckoned to Film for
righteousness." Abraham is the norm
or standard In this matter. A divine
righteousness is provided In the gospel
nnd reckoned over to the account of
those who believe that gospel. On the
basis of this imputed righteousness, tn
addition to the removal of guilt, one
may with Increased emphasis affirm:
“There Is therefore now no condeinna-
tlofi."
In the third place, a new life Is Im-
parted. Those to whom a divine right-
eousness Is Imputed tire made the
recipients of the divine life. In other
words, when we are Justified l»y
Christ, we are also united to Christ in
a spiritual, vital und vitalizing union.
As the branch is in the vine, so are
we In Christ. To be In Christ Implies
that the life of* Christ Is In us. The
one Is the compliment of the other.
In the fourth place, power Is pro-
vided. Condemnation may result from
powcrlessness ns well as from guilt.
The “wretched man" of Romans 7:24
cries out for power rather than for
cleansing. He longs for deliverance
from the dominion of the old nature.
His need at this point Is fully met,
even ns It Is In every other respect.
"The spirit of life In Christ Jesus hath
made me free from the law of sin nnd
death." Power Is provided, even the
power of the Holy Spirit who is "The
Spirit of life In Christ Jesus."
In view of this four fold provision,
the soul triumphantly exclaims:
“There is therefore now no condem-
nation to them that are In Christ
Jesus." for guilt is removed, righteous-
I ness Is Imputed, lift*. Is imparted, and
