“The Lord Jesus Christ has done what we ought to have done, and suffered what we ought to have suffered.

He has taken our place and become our substitute both in life and death, and all for the sake of miserable, corrupt, ungrateful beings like ourselves.

Oh, is not His name then rightly called, ‘The Lord our Righteousness‘ (Jeremiah 23:6)?”

–J.C. Ryle, The Christian Race and Other Sermons (Carlisle, PA: Banner of Truth, 2024), 77.
