Today we conclude our walk with Cranmer through Ascensiontide with the last two verses from the Comfortable Words. Having laid out the two sides—the longing of humanity for relief and the longing of God to rescue—Cranmer’s third Comfortable Word circles back like a hawk to the human condition, but now at a higher level.
Hear also what Saint Paul says. This is a true saying, and worthy of all men to be received, that Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners.
