Jesus Saved Me - In Christ - Part III

Sins (disobedience to God, missing the mark) separated us from God; but God sent Jesus to shed His blood for our sins. Jesus purchased eternal redemption for us.

Sins are forgiven
“I, even I, an He who blots out your transgressions for My own sake; and I will not remember your sins. Put me in remembrance; let us contend together; state your case, that you may be acquitted. Isa 43:25

…who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness –by whose stripes you were healed. I Pet 2:24

For the death that he died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God. Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord. Rom 6:11

In Him you were also circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the sins of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ, buried with Him in baptism, in which you also were raised with Him through faith in the working of God, who raised Him from the dead. And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses, having wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it our of the way, having nailed it to the cross. Col 2:11-14

And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only by also for the whole world. I John 2:2

“knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified.” Gal 2:16

But Christ came as High Priest of the good things to come, with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that is, not of this creation, not with the blood of goats and calves, but whith His own blood He entered the Most Holy Place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption. Heb 9:11-12

Isa 53:4-5
Rom 5:19
Heb 2:17
