Reading Commentary on the Epistle to the Galatians using http://stanza.lexcycle.com.
“CHAPTER 2”:
Samson, David, and many other excellent men, fell into grievous sins. Job and Jeremiah cursed the day of their birth. Elijah and Jonah became weary of life and prayed for death. Such offenses on the part of the saints, the Scriptures record for the comfort of those who are near despair.
No person has ever sunk so low that he cannot rise again. On the other hand, no man’s standing is so secure that he may not fall.
If Peter fell, I may fall. If he rose again, I may rise again. We have the same gifts that they had, the same Christ, the same baptism and the same Gospel, the same forgiveness of sins. They needed these saving ordinances just as much as we do.
