Subject: what do you understand by this verse |
Bible Note: 2 Corinthians 5:21 He made him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, that we might become the righteousness of God in him. James 2:10 For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all. As you can see from these verses, one must keep the law in it's entirety in order to be declared without sin. In fact, these verses indicate that Jesus kept the law precisely and entirely. In order for Jesus to be declared one "who knew no sin", then he must've kept the law precisely and entirely. Since he did it, then it must be possible to be justified if the law is kept precisely and entirely. However, as you have pointed out, and as I stated briefly, such a task is impossible for us.
