“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 Corinthians 5:21
God will never overlook sin. He cannot. God is holy, and by His holiness He has sworn that sin will be punished. If God were to let one half of one sin go unpunished, He would no longer be holy. The chief attribute of God is not love – it is holiness.
The cross is God’s way to punish sin and forgive the sinner at the same time. He who knew no sin, Jesus, God has made to be sin for us. Only the damned in hell can begin to know the price that Jesus paid. But even they will never know because they’re only paying their own sin debt. Jesus paid for all the sin of all of the people for all time.
Read Revelation 4:8. Let your anthem throughout the day be, “Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come.”
