While I draw this fleeting breath, when mine eyelids close in death,
when I soar to worlds unknown, see thee on thy judgment throne,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me, let me hide myself in thee.

Surely Christ did not become sin by actually sinning. And in the same way, we do not become righteous in our standing before God by actually performing righteous deeds. Christ was imputed, reckoned to be a sinner, though he himself committed no sin. By the same logic, we in Christ are reckoned, counted to be righteous, though we have no deeds that should merit such a standing before God. Kevin DeYoung

What wonder of wonders, what love is this;
that Christ would die for me!
His goodness, his merit, his righteousness, this sinner's only plea.
O foolish pride, be crucified; the work is finished!

All my boast is in Jesus; all my hope is his love
and I will glory forever in what the Cross has done.

Now fully forgiven, my life is filled with graces undeserved.
For mercy that flowed down that sacred hill, let praises now return.
Rise up, my soul, and bless the Lord! Who else is worthy?

Oh, praise the One, forever blessed!
Him alone my heart adores.
And I will boast in nothing less than the love of Christ my Lord.

I boast not in riches, in strength or might, but in the grace of God.
I glory in weakness; to live is Christ, in plenty or in want.
That I may know, that all may see his pow'r within me!

Now I stand in his freedom, ransomed clean in his sight,
And I cannot be ashamed for my boast is Jesus Christ.
My boast is Jesus Christ,
My boast is Jesus Christ.

It is better with closed eyes to follow God as our guide than by relying on our own providence to wander through circuitous paths which it devises for us. -John Calvin

The story Paul wants to tell is not Abraham, the righteous man who did not sin, kept the law, and was perfect in his deeds. That was the story that many of the Jews believed. Paul's story is, let me tell you about Father Abraham, the man who was counted righteous by faith. -Kevin DeYoung

If you are in Christ this morning, the law cannot condemn you. Not because it's just been set aside, but because it's been fulfilled.
