For the ungodly by Henry Law
Christ died for the ungodly Romans 5 6 To redeem poor sinners, Jesus
came down from heaven, put on the rags of our mortality, agonized,
bled, died. Jesus is made His people's substitute,
burden-bearer, sin-remover, guilt-sustainer. Their debt is placed to His account. His riches pay the full amount.
sin is removed from the sinner and placed on the sinless. Their curse is rolled on him
and he endures it until no more remains. God deals with Jesus
as the guilty one. He, a spotless deity, receives
imputed sins and fully expiates them all. In the vicarious victim,
God's justice is satisfied and wrath expires. Jesus, in his
life, in the garden, on the cross, suffers their sufferings, dies
their death, and so becomes their uttermost salvation. His pains
are their pardon. His stripes are their healing. His agony is their recovery. Christ died for the ungodly. Romans 5.6
