| NOT GUILTY |

8:33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? [It is] God that justifieth.
Who can accuse the people God has chosen? No one, because God is the
One who makes them right.
Every moment of your life, your accuser is filing charges against you. He
has noticed every error and marked each slip. Try to forget your past,
he'll remind you. Try to undo your mistakes, he will thwart you.
This expert witness has no higher goal than to take you to court and press
charges. Who is he? The devil.
He rails, "This one you call your child, God. He is not worthy".
As he speaks, you hang your head. You have no defense. His charges are
fair. "I plead guilty, your honor," you mumble.
"The sentence?" Satan asks.
"The wages of sin is death," explains the judge, "but in this case the death
has already occurred. For this one died with Christ."
Satan is suddenly silent. And you are suddenly jubilant. You have stood
before the judge and heard him declare, "Not guilty."
