Not I, But Christ by Corrie Ten Boom


Once a man went to the village priest to confess his sins and receive absolution. He said, “I stole three sacks of potatoes.” The priest listened and pointed to repentance for forgiveness.  When they had finished talking, the priest said: “I heard about that theft, but thought only two sacks were taken. You spoke of three.”

“Yes,” the man answered, “but tomorrow I am going to steal the third one.”

In John 8:11 Jesus told the woman caught in Adultery, “Go, and sin no more.”

Jesus died on the cross to set sinners free. He or she whom Jesus sets free, is free indeed!
