Every “good” deed we have ever done is as a filthy rag before God. So dead in our trespasses and sins are we that only the grace and mercy of God can save us. God expressed that grace and mercy by sending His Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross in our place.
Kila tendo "zuri" tumewahi fanya ni kama tambara chafu mbele ya Mungu. Hivyo ndivyo tulivyo wafu katika makosa na dhambi zetu ambapo kwamba ni tu neema na huruma ya Mungu inaweza kutuokoa.
