Perfect because God was in Christ

Why did Christ have to die? Could He not have saved us without dying? Man had broken God’s law and the penalty was death. How could Christ righteously deliver us without meeting our full penalty? Do you not see that if He paid anything less than the full price there would still be judgement for us to meet? But it is evident that because He died, the law we had broken can judge us no more.


The Bible says in Romans 8:1, “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus.”


On one occasion an unfinished court case extended to a second day. And, as is the usual practice, so that no outside influence could be brought to bear on the jurymen, they were kept in custody overnight. On entering the court the next morning, the judge, addressing the jury, said, “Gentlemen, the case is dismissed: the prisoner has been called to a higher court.” The accused had died in his cell during the night and there was no use going on with the case, since the law cannot judge a dead man.


Again, if a man should murder one person he is put to death, but if he should murder 6 people he is still just put to death, because this is the utmost penalty of the law. No matter what a man’s sins may be, the law knows no greater penalty than to take his life.


Therefore it matters not that there are sins in my life I have long since forgotten. I fear none of them, for I have this confidence that the Lord Jesus Christ, my Substitute, suffered the utmost penalty of the law on my account, freeing me absolutely from all its claims against me, both great and small.


Thought: Jesus paid it all.
Prayer: Lord, Thou hast died that I might live. Is any sacrifice too great to make for Thee?
