2 Corinthians 5:21; Made to be Sin for Us
2 Corinthians 5:21 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.
The sacrifice of Christ was infinitely great because it accomplishes a task so personal and real and eternally beneficial for each one of His children that it behoves us to a radical change in the way we look at life. Christ was made sin for us so that the righteousness of God may come to us, sinners. The Apostle Paul’s life was radically changed. The guilt of sin gave way to the peace of heart. He was connected in Christ to the Source of life. He was so grateful and he also showed great fear toward God. He understood the power of God to judge evil and he was gloriously delivered from it.
