CHRIST,
DEATH OF
But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.
The Bible, Ephesians 2:13
To put the matter at its simplest, Jesus Christ came to make bad men good.
James Denney
We are told that Christ was killed for us, that His death has washed out our sins, and that by dying He disabled death itself. That is the formula. That is Christianity. That is what has to be believed.
C.S. Lewis
One drop of Christ’s blood is worth more than heaven and earth.
Martin Luther
Take this to heart and doubt not that you are the one who killed Christ. Your sins certainly did, and when you see the nails driven through his hands, be sure that you are pondering, and when the thorns pierce his brow, know that they are your evil thoughts.
Martin Luther
If Socrates died like a philosopher, Jesus Christ died like a God.
Jean Jacques Rousseau
Christ, having sacrificed himself once, is to eternity a certain and valid sacrifice for the sins of all faithful.
Zwingli, Huldrych
