Bible Question: Does Jesus HIMSELF specifically state anywhere in the Bible that the purpose of His death was to take away our sins? Thank you! |
Bible Answer: Hi, Sienna! There are many Scriptural passages where Jesus spoke about His impending death to rescue us from sin: just as the Son of man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as ransom for many.' (Matthew 20:28) It will be Passover, as you know, in two day's time, and the Son of man will be handed over to be crucified.' (Matthew 26:2) See also: Matthew 12:39-40; 17:12, 22-23; 18:11; 20:18-19; Mark 8:31; 9:31; 10:33-34, 45; Luke 9:22, 56; 18:31-33; 19:10; John 3:14-21; 10:15; 12:23-31; The references do not always have the exact components that you are seeking, but through direct or indirect declarations they all refer to Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God Who gives His Life for the sins of the world! (John 1:29) God Bless! Angel |
