Jesus died not just to save us from sin, but to reorient our hearts to live for His glory. When we truly behold the beauty of Christ—His humility, love, sacrifice, and joy—we are moved to treasure Him above all else. This lesson invites us to fix our eyes on the One who gave Himself for us, that we might no longer live for ourselves, but for Him who died and rose again. In doing so, we find that living for Christ is not only right—it is more satisfying than anything the world can offer.
Christ Died to Complete the Obedience that becomes Our Righteousness (2 Corinthians 5:21)
At the heart of the gospel lies an astonishing truth: Christ's death not only paid the price for our sins but also provided the perfect obedience we could never achieve. Through Jesus’ life of obedience and sacrificial death, He fulfilled God’s requirement for righteousness on our behalf. This lesson explores the depths of 2 Corinthians 5:21, showing how Jesus’ obedience “to the point of death” became our righteousness. His righteousness is imputed to believers, allowing us to stand wholly justified in God’s sight—not by our works, but by Christ's perfect obedience and grace.
