The Righteous Discontent

You may not be able to change their opinion nor their behavior... but you can still do right.

Now there was a man named Joseph, from the Jewish town of Arimathea. He was a member of the council, a good and righteous man, who had not consented to their decision and action; and he was looking for the kingdom of God. This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then he took it down and wrapped it in a linen shroud and laid him in a tomb cut in stone, where no one had ever yet been laid. (Luke 23:50-53)

Acquitted

By the righteousness of faith we are acquitted from sin, 

and by the righteousness of works we are acquitted from hypocrisy.       

Thomas Manton - Puritan (1620-1677)
