Dead to sin’s guilt, alive to Christ’s power

No sin can be crucified either in heart or life, unless it first be pardoned in conscience, because there will be want of faith to receive the strength of Jesus, by whom alone it can be crucified. If it be not crucified in its guilt, it cannot be subdued in its power.
