Jesus Became Sin for You

“For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.”

2 CORINTHIANS 5:21

Ponder This

There was a cup Jesus drank from. What was in that cup? Imagine if you put all of your sin in a cup, then passed that cup to the billions of people who are alive on the face of the Earth and let them put their sin in. Then, you go back through time from Adam and Eve up until the day the trumpet shall sound and time shall be no more, and let every person put their sin in that cup. That is the cup Jesus took. He took that filthy cup, and He drank it down. He did not become a sinner, but He became sin.

When I read about Gethsemane, I want to weep. The very Son of God, with black dirt and red blood on His face, was praying, “Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me” (Matthew 26:39). Jesus knew when He took that cup, when He took the full weight of sin on Himself, God would have to treat Jesus as God treats sin, because Jesus was the substitute. God “did not spare His own Son” (Romans 8:32). Jesus knew that He, who had been in the bosom of the Father from all eternity, would become the object of the Father’s wrath. He would be separated from God the Father. This is what took place so you and I could have unity with our heavenly Father. What a beautiful and costly gift.

  • How do you feel when you consider all Jesus went through so you could be reconciled to God?
  • Do you treat unity with God as something valuable? Why or why not?

Practice This

Pray for someone you know who has not received this precious gift from God.
