It is Christ’s glory to pass over sins

It is Christ’s glory to pass over sins: "

“Let us take comfort in the thought that the Lord Jesus does not cast off His believing people because of failures and imperfections.


He knows what they are.


He takes them, as the husband takes the wife, with all their blemishes and defects, and, once joined to Him by faith, will never leave them. He is a merciful and compassionate High priest. It is His glory to pass over the transgressions of His people, and to cover their many sins.”


- J.C. Ryle, The Gospel of Mark, 1857
