In their accounts of the crucifixion, the Gospel writers focus not on the horrific details of Jesus’ anguish but on the reason for His suffering. In this message, Alistair Begg teaches that though we long to be restored to relationship with God, our attempts to fix things, mixed with sin as they are, only make matters worse. Jesus’ death on the cross, however, brings us a great exchange: His righteousness and forgiveness for our sin.
