The Suffering of The Sinless Son of God1 Peter 2:21-24 (NKJV)

21 For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps: 22 "Who

committed no sin, Nor was deceit found in His mouth"; 23 who, when He was reviled, did not revile in return; when He suffered, He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously; 24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we,

having died to sins, might live for righteousness--by whose stripes you were

healed.

He Became Flesh


John 1:1-14 (NKJV) 1 In the beginning was

the Word, and the Word was with God, and the

Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were

made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. . . . 4


He Became Flesh


John 1:1-14 (NKJV) . . . 14 And the Word became flesh and

dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the

only begotten of the Father, full of grace

and truth. 5


He Became Flesh


Philippians 2:5-8 (NKJV) 5 Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, 6 who,

being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, 7 but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of

a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in appearance as a man,

He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of

death, even the death of the cross.

6


He Became Flesh


Hebrews 2:14-17 (NKJV) 14 Inasmuch then as the

children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might

destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, 15 and release those who through fear of death

were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

7


He Became Flesh


Hebrews 2:14-17 (NKJV) 16 For indeed He does not give

aid to angels, but He does give aid to the seed of

Abraham. 17 Therefore, in all things He had to be made like His brethren, that He might

be a merciful and faithful High Priest in things

pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the

people. 8

The Suffering of The Sinless Son of GodIsaiah 53:3-11 (NKJV)

3 He is despised and rejected by men, A Man of sorrows and

acquainted with grief. And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him; He

was despised, and we did not esteem Him. 4 Surely He has borne our griefs And carried our sorrows;

Yet we esteemed Him stricken, Smitten by God, and afflicted.

22



5 But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for

our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And

by His stripes we are healed. 6 All we like sheep have gone

astray; We have turned, every one, to his own way; And the LORD has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.

23



7 He was oppressed and He was afflicted, Yet He opened not His mouth; He was led as a lamb to the slaughter, And as a sheep

before its shearers is silent, So He opened not His mouth.

8 He was taken from prison and from judgment, And who will

declare His generation?

24



For He was cut off from the land of the living; For the transgressions of My people He was stricken. 9 And

they made His grave with the wicked-- But with the rich at His death, Because He had done no

violence, Nor was any deceit in His mouth.

25



10 Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise Him; He has put Him to grief. When You make His soul an offering for sin, He shall see His seed, He shall prolong His days, And the pleasure of the

LORD shall prosper in His hand.

26



11 He shall see the labor of His soul, and be satisfied.

By His knowledge My righteous Servant shall

justify many, For He shall bear their iniquities.
