The idea of being the Substitute in offering an atonement to satisfy the demands of God’s law for others was something Christ understood as His mission from the moment He entered this world and took upon Himself a human nature. He came from heaven as the gift of the Father for the express purpose of working out redemption as our Substitute, doing for us what we could not possibly do for ourselves.

R. C. SproulI rest solely in His righteousness and in His atonement because I know there is nothing I can do to make up for my own iniquity.
R. C. SproulIn salvation we are not only saved from sin and damnation; we are saved unto holiness. The goal of redemption is holiness.
