“Faith does not come to Calvary to do anything.

It comes to see the glorious spectacle of all things done, and to accept this completion without a misgiving as to its efficacy.

It listens to the ‘It is finished!’ of the sin-bearer, and says, ‘Amen.’”

–Horatius Bonar, The Everlasting Righteousness; or, How Shall a Man be Just with God? (Carlisle, PA: Banner of Truth, 1873/2020), 91.
