PLEASEING IN HIS SIGHT
PREACH BROTHER PAUL TELLS US IN HIS
LETTER TO ALL BE AT ROME
5TH CHAPTER :6-8-VERSE ---For when we were yet
without strength, in due time Christ died for the
ungodly.
[7] For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet
peradventure for a good man some would even dare to
die.
[8] But God commendeth his love toward us, in that,
while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
