Old Lutheran Quote of the Day

There is only One out of all people who was perfectly righteous before God by His own work: the Man, Jesus Christ. He was not righteous for Himself, for He is God and does not require His own righteousness. He gives it away, gives it to all who desire it and will receive it. He gives it to all who believe in Him. -- C. F. W. Walther, *God Grant It!* p. 407
