Wednesday's Words of Wisdom...Jerram Barrs on Our Identity in Christ

"Thank God, we have a representative, a champion who has faced the devil's worst attacks and has won a great victory for us.  Despite our failures in the face of temptation, the Father looks at us through his beloved Son, the One who has overcome the accuser for us.  Because we are in Jesus, he looks on us with love. Because we are in Jesus, he does not count our faults against us. Because we are in Jesus, he forgives us. Because we are in Jesus he lifts us up when we fall.  Because we are in Jesus, he strengthens us for each day's struggles. Because we are in Jesus, the day is coming when he will give us complete victory over our enemy, and then we will never fail or fall again."
