Today, as we should all days, we celebrate the death of Jesus Christ. Why would anyone celebrate the death of a person, especially this man? We celebrate because we are made new, and our sins washed clean by the blood of this man Jesus! Jesus, a sinless man, free of all guilt, died on the cross in my place, and the place for all persons that place their trust and faith in Him, so that we might become righteous before the Almighty God. Through this death, through this atonement and washing of sin, through His resurection, and this becoming righteous, we know, through the promise of God, that we will one day be with Him in Heaven. No more pain, no more suffering, but new glorified bodies made perfect to worship and glorify the name of God for eternity. We all cry Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty!
Isaiah 53:5
5 But he was wounded for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities;
upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his stripes we are healed.
