Because all men be sinners and offenders against God, and breakers of His law and commandments, therefore can no man by His own acts, works, and deeds (seem they never so good) be justified, and made righteous before God: But every man of necessity is constrained to seek for another righteousness or justification, to be received at God’s own hands, that is to say, the forgiveness of his sins and trespasses, in such things as he hath offended. And this justification or righteousness, which we so receive of God’s mercy and Christ’s merits, embraced by faith, is taken, accepted, and allowed of God, for our perfect and full justification.

Hi Everyone,

I noticed someone pointed out that we need to be careful of viruses when opening attachments. I want to share something that happen to me just last week.
I recieved an email, from what looked like a group I belong to. It had a copy of my message, along with the added phrase, take a look at the file(or something like it). The topic we had been discussing was registration for llamas, and it looked legit. Well it wasn't! It was a trojan virus. Luckily the group moderator picked up that it was coming through, disguised as from the list, and warned everyone. It was too late for me but I was able to identify the invected files and delete them. One thing I learned the first time a virus crashed our system was, if you suspect you have a virus, never, never shut down your system. That often activates them or erases files that make it impossible for you to load back up and get your system cleaned. Personally I will never open an attachment again without first expecting it, and second confirming that the person in question sent it if I wasn't expecting it. I hope this is helpful to someone.
