Who said this?
"Either sin is with you, lying on your shoulders, or it is lying on Christ, the Lamb of God. Now if it is lying on your back, you are lost; but if it is resting on Christ, you are free, and you will be saved. Now choose what you want."
Words from Pastor Ken Klaus
Lutheran Hour Ministries: "So, if death is gonna getcha, might I not suggest all of us need to be first “got” by the Savior. We need to be “got” by the Savior, who can take us through the valley of the shadow of death. We need to be “got” by the Savior, who assures us: “Because I live, you shall live also.” We need to be “got” by the Savior, who gave His life, so we might really, truly, live forever."
