He who knew no sin

He who knew no sin – 2 Cor 5:21

This verse is the essence of Christ’s ability to be a sinless sacrifice.  This statement is a cardinal doctrine of the church.  Jesus Christ was sinless.  His virgin birth provided the means.  His ability through the Holy Spirit to live a sinless life gave Him.  Paul states, He who knew no sin became sin for us.   On the cross Jesus had all the sins, past, present & future placed on Him.  Jesus’ sinless perfection qualified Him to be the perfect lamb.  His blood cleanses us and all mankind from all sin.  All we have to do is ask.  That is why I love redemption.  The blood of Jesus can cleanse all these sins.  Why, because in Him there is no sin.  He was God’s perfect and loving sacrifice.  Nothing needs to be added or subtracted.
