Isaiah 65:17-23 King James Version 17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind. 18 But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy. 19 And I will...

Mark 12:18-27 King James Version 18 Then come unto him the Sadducees, which say there is no resurrection; and they asked him, saying, 19 Master, Moses wrote unto us, If a man's brother die, and leave his wife behind him, and leave no children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up...

The gospel, or good news, of Jesus Christ is the news that Jesus, the son of God, the Christ (Messias), died for our sins, was buried, and rose from the dead. Why is this good news? That Jesus died for our sins (our sins were laid on Jesus and Jesus was put to death for them) was buried and rose...

Something I should have included in my original post is that all our sins were laid on Jesus and that he was put to death for them by God the Father. Isaiah 53:6 KJV 6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us...

Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and the propitiation for our sins. He is the means by which God the Father propitiated the problem of our sins for himself. Jesus died for our sins, God inflicted all consequence for our sins on Jesus. Romans 3:24-26 KJV 24 Being justified freely by his...

John 6:44 King James Version 44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day. Ephesians 2:8-9 King James Version 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest...

Reading right now and I don't see how he bore God's wrath or took the punishment for our sins, just that he died for them. Isaiah 53:10 KJV Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong...

I see what you're saying. Yes, it does seem like Jesus received the punishment for our sins.

This is what those two verses I posted mean by name I think. That he died for our sins was buried and rose from the dead. Both Jesus and John are speaking in general I think so, I don't know what else they would mean. I'm not exactly sure though. I think someone's name is what makes them famous...

John 3:18 King James Version 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 1 John 5:13 King James Version 13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of...

Well, this is the one verse that I can find that supports the view that Jesus was punished for our sins, 1 Peter 3:18 King James Version 18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the...

Or did he just die for our sins? This is something I've been trying to figure out for the past few months and have been unable to do so. As far as I have read, the language in the Holy Bible never explicitly says that Jesus took the punishment for our sins, but it seems clear to me that he died...

1 Corinthians 15:1-4 King James Version 15 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I...

1 John 5:13 King James Version 13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. This is a very valuable verse in the Bible, it tells you exactly what you need...

Well my understanding is that Jesus is the Lamb of God. I don't have a complete understanding, but if I'm correct our sins were laid on him and he died for them (as if he was guilty, though he was not, to put it into words). So in that sense he takes away our sins because that is how God sees...
