God’s Mercy and the Effectual Plea

What a merciful Saviour is Jesus Christ! We may not plead our worthiness or works; at the best these are mixed with error. "All our righteousnesses [not sins] are as filthy rags." The effectual plea is that of David: "Have mercy upon me, O God, according unto Thy loving-kindness; according to the multitude of Thy tender mercies, blot out my transgression." And the prayer inspired by the Spirit will be heard of the Father.
