"Poor as my faith in the Substitute may be, it places me at once in the position of one to whom 'God imputeth righteousness without works.' God is willing to receive me on the footing of His perfection; and if I am willing to be thus received, in the perfection of another with whom God is well pleased, the whole transaction is completed. I am justified by His blood. 'As He is, so am I (even) in this world,' -- even now, with all my imperfections and evils."

Horatius Bonar
The Everlasting Righteousness
