1 Peter 2:22-25
To him; God, who although he commands his people to manifest a Christian spirit towards all, will nevertheless condemn and punish those who oppress or injure them. Mt 25:40-46. The commands of God to exercise right feelings when suffering under wrongs, were not designed to excuse the authors of those wrongs; and to quote these commands for such a purpose is a gross perversion of Scripture. Bare our sins; expiated them by suffering in his own person the curse of them, and thus delivering us from it. Joh 1:29; Ga 3:13.The tree; the cross.Dead to sins; freed from their guilt and power.By whose stripes; in consequence of whose sufferings. Isa 53:5.Ye were healed; delivered from sin in its condemnation and pollution. The Shepherd and Bishop; Jesus Christ, the overseer and watchman of our souls. Isa 40:11.
