Because of Calvary,
John Janney
I John 1:7 (ESV)
7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.
“My various powers awake
To sound redeeming grace
To Him that washed us in His blood,
Ascribe eternal praise.
What though our built appears
Dyed in a crimson-grain?
The stream that flows from Jesus’ side,
Shall purge away the stain.
Midst all our various forms
We in this Center meet;
Our hearts, cemented by His blood,
Shall taste communion sweet.
Then let us walk in light,
Like Christ, whose name we wear;
And, as the pledge of endless bliss,
Our Father’s image bear.”
[Philip Doddridge]
