The Guilty is Set Free
Posted: May 11, 2014
A lesson in redemption from the headlines…
Though guilty,
he's forgiven
of the debt he rightly owed.
A gracious judge has set the prisoner free.
The Law's demand was satisfied.
His debt was paid in full.
That headline sounds
quite biblical to me.
A new birth
some might call it.
The old has passed away.
The prisoner is quite different through and through.
God's grace means new beginnings.
What's "amazing" can redeem
that ex-con in Missouri
(also you).
