NASB | 1 Peter 2:24 and He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds you were healed. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Peter 2:24 He personally carried our sins in His body on the cross [willingly offering Himself on it, as on an altar of sacrifice], so that we might die to sin [becoming immune from the penalty and power of sin] and live for righteousness; for by His wounds you [who believe] have been healed. |
Subject: did Jesus die for our sins or sickness |
Bible Note: Hi CDBJ, Regarding the wages of sin, the context was sickness leading to physical death and, I was under the impression that in the discussion spiritual death was already assumed. Your comment, "We can be born twice and die once, because Jesus was born once and died twice" is well put. Someone said Jesus experienced on the Cross what he never experienced before - death - in order that we may experience what we have never experienced - eternal life. |
