PIERCED FOR OUR TRANSGRESSIONS

To “transgress” means to cross a line or step outside of a boundary, as in violating a law or committing a crime. All humanity has violated God’s perfect law, and our crime is actually against Him. Our defiance and opposition to most severe penalty: death (Romans 6:23) and eternal separation from God. Christ was crucified (executed by being nailed to an upright cross until He died) because God allowed Him to take our place, as our substitute, and suffer the death penalty that our sin deserved (Psalms 22:16; Zechariah 12:10; John 19:34). By admitting our sin and accepting Christ’s sacrifice as our own, we can receive forgiveness and have peace with God (Romans 5:1).

BY HIS WOUNDS WE ARE HEALED

This healing refers to a complete salvation – a gift from God that brings us into a relationship with Him – with all its benefits, spiritual and physical. Sickness and disease are the result of sin entering the world through humankind’s rebellion against God and of Satan’s activity in the world. John, one of Jesus’ closest disciples, wrote that “the reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil’s work” (1 John 3:8). Christ gave gifts of healing to His church (1 Corinthians 12:9) and commanded His followers to heal the sick as part of their endeavor to promote God’s kingdom purposes and spread His message of complete salvation around the world (Luke 9:1-2, 6; 10:1, 8-9, 19).
