Nothing so intensely impresses man with a conviction of his unworthiness and fills him with such a horror of sin as when he believingly sees what it has cost the Son of God. And when he beholds this unspeakable love, exercised toward him while yet in his sin and shame, he feels that he owes his life, his faculties, his all to Him who has redeemed him by such immeasurable grace. And it is in this manner that, by the energizing gift of the Holy Spirit, faith becomes the source of good works. It is the one who believes that Christ has borne the guilt and punishment of his sins, who also believes that, living or dying, he belongs, body and soul, to his Redeemer.
