Loading verse text…

• #AOC38 But is there any more in it, that he was fastened to the Cross, than if he had suffered any other kind of death? There is more: for by this I am assured that he took upon himself the curse which did ly on me; for the death of the Cross was accursed of God.
• #HC39 Does it have a special meaning that Christ was crucified and did not die in a different way? Yes. Thereby I am assured that He took upon Himself the curse which lay on me, for a crucified one was cursed by God.
• #GC60 Is there greater importance in His having been crucified than if He had been put death in another way? Yes, as Paul also shows us when he says that He hanged on a tree to take our curse upon Himself and acquit us of it (Gal 3:13). For that kind of death was accursed of God (Deu 21:23).
