“Think what it cost the Lord Jesus to expiate* the guilt of sin by suffering the wrath of the great and terrible God for it in our room! The meditations of a crucified Christ are very crucifying meditations unto sin.  He suffered unspeakable things for sin: It was a divine wrath that lay upon His soul for it…It was unmixed and unallayed wrath, poured out in the fullness of it, even to the last drop.  And shall we be so easily drawn to the commission of those sins which put Christ under such sufferings?” - John Flavel

* To atone for; to make satisfaction for
