Part 3 of 3 - "15 Words of Hope" (2 Corinthians 5:21) by Pastor and Author, John MacArthur-
"How many words do you need to sum up the most powerful truth - the main point - in all Scripture? Take a look at fifteen that do an amazingly thorough job"
MacArthur explains the heart of the Gospel from 2 Corinthians 5:21:
"He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf that we might become the righteousness of God in Him."
MacArthur also answers the life-changing questions: "How can an absolutely and utterly holy God who is infinitely pure and perfect ever be reconciled to sinners? How can He do that who is too pure to look on sin or to fellowship with transgressors? How can God satisfy His just and holy law with a condemnation of sinners by full and deserved punishment and still show them mercy who deserve no mercy? How can God end the hostility and how can He take sinners into His holy heaven to live with Him forever in intimate communion? How? How can both justice and grace be satisfied? How can love toward sinners and righteousness come together? To put it in Paul's words, how can God be just and a justifier of sinners?"
This complete message is also found in his latest book of sermons, "Truth Endures."
