Fri.-Sabbath, 11/27-29/20 Devotion

Thank God—Sunday is almost here! In order to better help us get ready for God’s holy day, here are some good words from Thomas Watson, found in his "A Body of Divinity” book. (I did a little bit of editing, for clarification pur-poses.) . . .

"All regenerate believers in Christ are in the same way and measure justified. Justification does not apply to some more than to others. Though there are degrees in grace, yet this does not apply in justification. One true Christian is not more justified than another true Christian. The weakest believer is as per-fectly justified as the strongest one. Mary Magdalene was every bit as justi-fied as was Mary the mother of Christ.

“May this be a source of comfort to all weak believers. Though they may have but a drop [small bit] of saving faith in the Redeemer, they are as truly justified as he who is of the highest stature in Christ."
