“For him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.”
2 Corinthians 5:21 (WEB)
Context Reading
19namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not reckoning to them their trespasses, and having committed to us the word of reconciliation. 20We are therefore ambassadors on behalf of Christ, as though God were entreating by us: we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. 21For him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
