We are?
I am nothing more than a worthless sinner that deserves death. But Jesus takes that sin away and washes me with His blood.
Unfortunately, He has to do this regularly because, just like everyone else, I remain a sinner and in need of His cleansing power.
I'm certain there will be a Catholic here soon to tell us it's because of the rosary, or Mary, or Mary's rosary, or something like that...
