If you’re a Christian, you’re not a Christian because when Jesus Christ was on that cross - the Romans and Jews beat Him up. If you’re a Christian - your sins are paid for, because when He was on that tree, He bore the sins of His people. And God, His own Father, crushed Him under the full force of His wrath - all the wrath that should have been poured out on you; God crushed His only begotten Son in your place.
— Paul Washer
