Made sin for us

2 Corinthians 5:21, "For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him."


The parable of being made sin but not being a sinner. This has Spiritual context of Jesus not being born in sin or being a sinner at any point, yet being made to be sin for us. Which connects to the Spiritual context of that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.


This was the favorite verse of R. G. Lee, the great Southern Baptist preacher. An incredible parabolism. The parabolic word, made.


Digging into Strong's Concordance I find 65 different Greek words translated made, and I just passed Ephesians...I stopped counting. The Greek here...to come into any state, or simply to be. In some parabolic Way (Heavenly Truth with a Heavenly meaning), God attached all of the sins of the world...past, present, and future...to Jesus' body, not His Life. And imparted His Righteous Life into each Saint. Well, amen.
