The Last Words of Love From Christ on the Cross / The Word of Substitution

Jesus Became My Substitute - He took the punishment for everything you’ve ever done wrong and everything you will ever do wrong.

Jesus paid the price for the sins you haven’t even committed yet. He became the Substitute by taking the punishment on himself.

What Does Substitution Teach Use? 

1. God Is Holy

2. Sin Is Ugly 

-Separates Me From God 

-Sin Distresses Me

-Sin Condemns Me

3. Salvation Is Costly

How Should I Respond To Christ?

1. Turn From My Sin And Trust Jesus To Save Me

2. Live In A State Of Gratitude

3. When Tempted, I Must Remember What My Sin Cost Jesus

4. Tell Others The Good News!
