Jesus was our substitute on the cross.

 

The Bible says,
“He made the One who did not know sin to be sin for us, so that we
might become the righteousness of God in Him.”

 

                                                                                                                         - 2 Corinthians 5:21

Jesus took our sin upon Himself and suffered what we deserved.
Jesus’ sacrifice displays God’s loving mercy and righteous justice as
no other action could. He offers forgiveness of our sin as a free gift.

 

                     This gift however must be recieved.
                                                   That brings us to the last S in CROSS.
