Romans 5:6-8 For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Jesus Christ died for me. Jesus was one with the Father; He was God. God the Father took all of my sins and put them on Jesus. He looked at Jesus as if He actually committed my sins. The Bible says He became my sin. The Father then poured His wrath out on His Son for my sin, He turned His back on Jesus because He had become my sin, and their oneness was broken for the first time in all eternity. I was saved, born again, adopted into the family of God, forgiven, and destined for heaven when I admitted that I couldn’t save myself, believed the gospel, accepted the free gift of salvation, and committed to following and obeying Jesus, my Savior, and Lord.
