God not only sees you just as He sees Christ, but you are personally united with Christ and His merit imputed through Word & Sacrament. In the Holy Eucharist you receive His body, blood, and benefits. Be ”fed with your ears” [Luther] by Law & Gospel Preaching proclaiming Christ’s Person & Work in Forensic Justification. Rest in the renewing of your mind as Scripture interprets Scripture through Christ in His unfolding story. Hear like ancient believers as Christ, the Word, explains all that Moses, the Prophets & the Scriptures say concerning Him.
