This is a ministry of striving for eternity. Sometimes people will challenge you with the question of how can one person's death pay the price of another person's crime or sin.

In other words, how can Christ's death on the cross be a payment for the sin that you and I do when we break

God's law, we're criminals, yet we end up seeing in scripture, 2 Corinthians 5 .21

says, Well, that certainly seems like the death that Christ paid on that cross was a payment for the sin that I committed.

And it seems like that's not fair, just, and a lot of people challenge this.

However, this is nothing that's not unusual with the law. If you get a fine, say you're speeding on the road, and the judge issues you a $50 fine, but you don't have $50.

Someone else can pay it. Now, that person has to have the money and be willing to freely give it.

But this is a jail sentence. Well, that can be as well. You can pay the jail time of another person.

Now, there are some rules with it. You have to be in a right state of mind. You have to be innocent of the crime.

You have to be willing to do it, and the person has to be willing to let you. It's no different with Christ.

He is in the right state of mind. He knew what he was doing. He was willing to do it. We, though, have to receive that gift.
