Analysis of AS FILTHY RAGS !!
OF MY OWN GOOD DEEDS I CANNOT BRAG, BECAUSE ALL OF MY RIGHTEOUSNESS IS
AS FILTHY RAGS.
AS ISAIAH FORETOLD SO LONG AGO,
THOUGH OUR SINS BE AS SCARLET JESUS CAN MAKE THEM AS WHITE AS SNOW,
WHEN JESUS WAS PIERCED IN HIS HANDS AND HIS FEET,
THE SACRIFICIAL SYSTEM WAS MADE COMPLETE.
