Our Only Entry to Heaven

The only righteousness in which we can appear before God is the righteousness of another- even the perfect righteousness of our Substitute and Representative, Jesus Christ the Lord. His work and not our work is our only title to heaven. This is a truth which we should be ready to die to maintain.

(Holiness, JC Ryle, p21).

A great quote. I've just purchased a copy... so let me know if you're still reading it? It'd be great to chat about it.
