Sin is linked to death because that is the wages. When Jesus carried the sin of the world, the Divinity stepped out of Jesus and that is when He cried out. “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me!”

Divinity cannot die, therefore, at that moment it left Jesus to give way to death. That is why the Lord felt abandoned by God. He had to die as a man, not as God and man.

Jesus’ earthly life was 33 years in which He suffered many afflictions from the very womb. He could have died in the womb of His mother when she could have been stoned for being pregnant without a husband.

From His Conception to Gethsemane, in all His afflictions, He was comforted by the presence of the Father. Not so on the Cross, then, how could He remain himself and carry out the plan of redemption without His Father?

At the creation of man, God imparted His life to him, and Adam received that tenacity. When man sets out to do something, he fights against the winds and tides until he achieves it. The Tower of Babel is an example.

I believe that human tenacity and His commitment to redemption kept Him on the Cross. Jesus had no anti-body for sin because he never practiced it.

So even at that critical moment, abandoned and despised by all, sin had no power against Him. All its tissues and membranes were free of contamination. Nothing in His being was ever the recipient of sin. And that is why His body can serve as currency to pay God for the world’s sin debt. And this is love!

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life.” (John 3:16 MEV).
