Then said Pilate to the chief priests and to the people, I find no fault in this man. - Luke 23:4
Although this statement was made by the cowardly, compromising Pilate, it is the glorious truth acknowledged by all who know the Lord Jesus Christ. He is the essence of perfection as God and as man. He is the embodiment of truth, holiness, righteousness and justice. There is none with whom he can be compared. His glory is his perfection, and his perfection is his glory. His faultlessness sets him apart from all others. The glorious person of the Lord Jesus Christ makes all he does radiate with his wondrous perfections and beauty.
As a matter of fact, it is this virtue that captivates the hearts of all who behold him as he is! One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts. I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works (Ps 145:4-5)! The Lord Jesus Christ is faultless in his person and his work. His work in the glorification of the Father and the redemption of his people reveal to us the impeccable virtues of his holy character. His children look upon him in wonder and amazement as we behold his perfect salvation.
He worked out a perfect righteousness for us and perfectly put away our sin as he became sin for us. For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him (2 Cor 5:21). Therefore, his elect is clothed with his perfections as we abide in him and are accepted in him by God the Father. As there is no fault found in Him, there is no fault found in those who are in Him. To him be all honour, all glory and all praise. Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen (Eph 3:21).
