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...

Is the blood of Christ not applied when we have faith in it as it says in Romans 3:25? Romans 3:25 King James Version 25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God...

Sorry 1 Corinthians 15:3 *

Just writing an observation. When I read the Bible it only says that Jesus died for our sins (1 Corinthians 15:4), I don't recall it going beyond that (though I might be way wrong). I have an impression that that is where forgiveness comes in, that Jesus died for our sins and so we can be...

I've read it stated before online that all sins are forgiven when someone comes to faith in Jesus (past, present, and future). I'm just wondering the opinion of others if this is actually the case. I recall reading in the New Testament that the Father is just and faithful to forgive us our sins...

Oh, I know that. Like the things about him that are true. Someone awhile back told me you need to believe on his name in order to be saved, like believe a lot of the things about him that are true, in order to be saved. It's really throwing me for a loop because John 3 seems to be saying that...

Do you have to believe in his name to be saved, or is it just believing in him that saves someone? Like would it just be enough if someone believed Jesus was the Son of God to be saved? The language in John 3 seems like you just need to believe in him.
