Info
More than 700 years before Jesus died on the cross, the prophet Isaiah predicted the Passover sacrifice of Jesus. Isaiah describes Jesus' final hours as a man standing at the foot of the cross, writing His prophesy in the past tense. (Isaiah 53:1–12) There has never been any person in history who could potentially fulfill all of Isaiah's prophecies.
Jesus' death on the cross ultimately fulfills the Lamb of God prophecy (John 1:29, Revelation 5:12, Hebrews 9:11-14) He was pierced and crushed; He endured your punishment to obtain peace, prosperity, wholeness, success, and well-being. And with the stripes that wounded Him, you find your healing and wholeness. (Isaiah 53:5, John 19:36-37, Revelations 1:7)
Jesus became the sin sacrifice for you (Ephesians 5:2) and died as a criminal on the cross. (Luke 23:39) God placed your guilt on Him, Who never sinned, in order for you to be approved, acceptable, and in right relationship with God through your union with Christ. An amazing divine exchange took place at the cross. All of your sins were left behind, along with all of your guilt forever gone, and you walked away with all of God's righteousness. (2 Corinthians 5:21.)
