Christian Quote by Roland H. Bainton

“Unless a man is already a believer and a Christian, his works have no value at all. They are foolish, idle, damnable sins, because when good works are brought forward as grounds for justification, they are no longer good. Understand that we do not reject good works, but praise them highly.” quote by Roland H. Bainton — Download Open image
