can dwell in the presence of God, save it be through the

00:00:08.730 --> 00:00:14.190 align:middle line:90%
merits, and mercy, and grace of the Holy Messiah."

free from the demands of justice.

00:00:44.480 --> 00:00:48.740 align:middle line:90%
His mercy pays our debt to justice when we

00:00:48.740 --> 00:00:52.780 align:middle line:90%
repent and obey Him.

00:00:52.780 --> 00:00:57.150 align:middle line:90%

we will still fall short, because of His grace we will

00:01:03.130 --> 00:01:07.970 align:middle line:90%
be "saved, after all we can do."
