At the Cross There Was a Divinely Ordained Exchange: Jesus Received the EVIL Due to Us, that We Might Receive the GOOD Due to Him.
Aspects of the Exchange:
1. Jesus was PUNISHED that we might be FORGIVEN ( Isa53: 4 - 5 )
2. Jesus was WOUNDED that we might be HEALED ( Matt 8:16 - 17 )
3. Jesus was made SIN with our SINFULNESS that we might be made RIGHTEOUS with His RIGHTEOUSNESS ( Isa 53: 10. 2 Cor 5: 21 )
4. Jesus tasted DEATH for us that we might share His LIFE ( Heb 2: 9 )
5. Jesus was made a CURSE that we might receive the BLESSING (Gal 3: 13 - 14 )
6. Jesus endured our POVERTY that we might share His ABUNDANCE ( 2 Cor 8: 9 )
7. Jesus endured our SHAME that we might share His GLORY ( Matt 27: 35 - 36 )
8. Jesus endured our REJECTION that we might have His ACCEPTANCE ( Matt 27: 45 - 51 )
"IT IS FINISHED" ( John 19: 30 )
