Christ in Our Place

Romans 8:34

At the end of A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens, a prisoner awaits his execution. In order to save him, a friend switches identities with the condemned man, and give his own life in his place. We all stand guilty before God, and under the sentence of eternal condemnation. But if you trust in Jesus Christ, you can rest assured that He has taken your place, paid the penalty for your sin, and given you eternal life. Listen to these words of assurance from Dr. Barnhouse.
