Subject: WHO pays the wage? |
Bible Note: Greetings Kalos - I like the observation about the word "impute" that sure clarifies things. HOW "God made Him who knew no sin to BE sin for us" does indeed imply the substitutionary nature of the OT sacrifice. Just as God imputes to us the righteousness of Christ - He imputes our sin to Him who knew no sin! Thanks. Blessings, mommapbs |
