…He offered to His heavenly Father of us poor sinners His entire, complete obedience. This extends from His holy birth even unto death. In this way, He has covered all our disobedience, which dwells in our nature, and its thoughts, words, and works. So disobedience is not charged against us for condemnation. It is pardoned and forgiven out of pure grace alone, for Christ's sake.
~BOC, FSD, III, 58
Discussed this very thing in Bible Class this a.m. in our study of the First Table of the Law. Thank you!
