The great exchange

To be reconciled to God in Christ is to have participated in an exchange—“Christ who knew no sin became sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.“ Not because of anything we have done, but based entirely upon the merits of Christ, His death in our stead allows the Father to see us in good favor. We now have a place at the table in God‘s Divine Council; as ambassadors for Christ we are called to make known to all the peace of God made possible by this great exchange!
