Hello Pilgrimshope.
Our Savior was bruised in the sense of correction, as every son of God is,
For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. Heb.12:6
Jesus wasn't punished in place of any sinner, but as an example of how merciful God is toward injustice. There are no exceptions to this
wise brother
“merciful God is toward injustice.”
God isn’t merciful toward injustice , he is merciful towards
us despite the injustice weve committed because he loves mankind
Jesus taking our place in death is like if you have a son and he made some bad mistakes but you know he’s got a good heart, you would take his place because
you love him not because your merciful towards injustice you’re a just and righteous man so by your very nature you are opposed to injustice and sin but you still love your kid
even though he’s done alot wrong that you don’t approve of
“For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.”
Romans 5:6-11 KJV
I wondered once “ what practical sense does it make that Gods only begotten son who did no sin , had to die in order for creation to live ?”
a long time later I realized Gods word whatever he declares
has to be fulfilled
“but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,
thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof
thou shalt surely die.”
Genesis 2:17 KJV
“
Thou shalt not commit adultery.”
Exodus 20:14 KJV
“And the man that
committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress
shall surely be put to death.”
Leviticus 20:10 KJV
“For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet
offend in one point, he is guilty of all.”
James 2:10 KJV
“for
all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;”
Romans 3:23
“Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine:
the soul that sinneth, it shall die.”
Ezekiel 18:4 KJV
Jesus died to save us from the law of sin and death see Roman’s 8:1-4
“But he was
wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the
chastisement of our peace was
upon him; and
with his stripes we are healed. 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 all. ( that’s all I mean by taking the sinners place )
Yet
it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when
thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, ( the soul that sins must die ) he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and
the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.”
Isaiah 53:5-6, 10 KJV
the salvation of lost sinners is the lords pleasure in Christ by the gospel , part of that being done is to provide a substitute or
propitiation the lord finds acceptable that “ appeases “ his word of requirement of
death required for sin.
from the beginning until the end
sin requires death because we all failed and we’re condemned by that law he became a man to die in our place or as the “ propitiation “ for sin , i hope that makes sense at least as to what I am trying to say
jesus died in the place of all mankind to this end so we would see him this way
“But the
scripture hath concluded all under sin,
that
the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.”
Galatians 3:22 KJV
So this
“And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and
preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.”
Mark 16:15-16 KJV
actually has understanding and faith for us to hear
“Know ye not, that
so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are
buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
For if we have been
planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: knowing this, that
our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.”
Romans 6:3-6 KJV
“And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: in whom also
ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are
risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. And you,
being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him,
having forgiven you all trespasses;”
Colossians 2:10-13 KJV
Propitiation is the key term
Give this a read, or listen, see if it answers your question.
