Jesus came and died in our place. He was our substitute. Because He was without sin, He was able to pay the penalty for our sins. His death for us means that we can be free from guilt and reconciled to God. Jesus’ death is the only real answer to our guilt.
— Timothy Lane (b. 1961), Pfarrer, Buchautor und biblischer Seelsorger
