Jesus Died--A Really Big Deal!

2 Corinthians 5:21

• False Claim #1 – Jesus was not supposed to die. Matthew 20:28
• False Claim #2 – Jesus did not really die on the cross.
• False Claim #3 – Jesus was never actually crucified.

The Truth – Jesus died on the Cross in your place. 2 Corinthians 5:21; 1 Peter 2:24; Isaiah 53:4-6

• The beneficiaries of Christ’s death are those who believe. John 1:12; John 3:16; Romans 10:9; Ephesians 2:8
• The benefactor is God Himself. John 3:16; Romans 5:8; Hebrews 10:11
• Our substitute is Jesus Himself. Romans 3:23; Hebrews 4:15; Isaiah 53:4-6; John 10:18
• The benefit is becoming righteous in God’s sight. Philippians 3:9
