3. Whose sins was Jesus suffering for? Isaiah 53:4.
NOTE: ‘When, in consequence of transgression, Adam and Eve were cut off from all hope, when justice demanded the death of the sinner, Christ gave Himself as a sacrifice. “Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation, (that which can again bring us into favour with God) for our sins.” “All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned everyone to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on Him the iniquity of us all.” 1 John 4:10; Isaiah 53:6.’ Counsel to Parents, Teachers and Students, page 268.
4. How does Scripture teach us that it is only through Jesus that we can be free of the condemnation of our sins? John 5:24.
NOTE: ‘The freedom which the apostle describes as the privilege of Christ’s followers will never be experienced by those who delight to trample underfoot the law of God. The freedom and blessedness expressed in the following words, will be experienced by that class who yield obedience to the law of Jehovah: “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.” The apostle charges the Galatians to “walk in the Spirit and not fulfil the lust of the flesh.” He further states: “And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.” Review & Herald, March 8, 1870.
