So Great Salvation

"God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God."2Cor 5:21
1. God made
The Creator who made all things has made a way to redeem all things. And the whole creation groans for that redemption.
2. Him
Who is He? He is Jesus of Nazareth. He is the Word that became flesh. He is the Son of God. He is the King of Kings. He is Lord. "He who had no sin," the sinless one.
3.  God made him...to be sin for us.
The sin is and was ours, not his. It is my sin and your sin. It is the sin that corrupts the whole of creation. It is the sin that we inherited from Adam, that original sin in which we were born. It is the sin that caused the Los Vegas and the church shootings. It is the sin that kills babies, corrupts marriages, starves people, enslaves girls and boys in sex trafficking, breaks up marriages and destroys families. It is that sin which produces collective results in a fallen world, poverty and disease and natural disasters. It is our sin. It became his. He who had no sin became sin...for us!
4. So that
Something good is about to follow... So that...
5. In him
Not in myself and my works nor my goodness.
Not in the Republican nor Democratic Parties.
Not in Buddha, Not in Mohammed, Not in Krishna. In Him. (See #2 above)
6. We might become
Possibilities we have never known in our selves nor in others become reality in Him. We can be something we have not been. We can do something we have not done. We can see and taste and smell and touch and feel something we never knew. What we have not been, can be.
7. The righteousness of God
Glory! The righteous, the Holiness of God. Through Christ God puts us in a right relationship with himself, a justified relationship, so that we become his righteousness, his holiness, we become like him. What does that mean? See all of the above. We become like a Jesus!
