Our Salvation Wrought Upon The Cross

Are you trusting in a righteousness of your own! Leave that loom. Are the gossamer threads of your own TOWS and promises ever snapping in your hand, and breaking at every show of the shuttle?

It was wrought upon the cross; and, of color more enduring than Tyrian purple, it is dyed red in the blood of Calvary.—GUTHRIE.
