My substitute ( Isaiah 53 )

'On the cross Jesus drank from the cup of God's wrath', Why?well it is in Isaiah 53 we find the answer,in verse 5, we read of the suffering servant who we believe is Jesus being crushed for our iniquities,and then in verse 10, we read,'Yet it was the Lords will to crush him and cause him to suffer'. Those two verses tell us a very profound truth, of  Jesus  who became the sinners substitute, instead of sinner like you and I being punished for our sins, He was. Next we are told in v 10 ,who did the crushing, it was the Lord God, None of this was accidental, no, it was part of Gods plan to save sinners like you and me. This wonderful chapter is all about the great dilemma,facing God, how could He save humanity from the necessary punishment for their sin?,So Christ came and bore  the punishment for our sins..All who trust Jesus will no longer face Gods wrath because of their sin,because Jesus bore it. Accepting Christ means we need not suffer God's wrath, rejecting Christ means we will experience, Gods wrath,In a sense the choice is your's,                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Wounded for me, wounded for me,                                                                                                            There on the cross He was wounded for me,                                                                                            Gone my transgressions now I am free,                                                                                                    All because Jesus was wounded for me.
