Hand in Hand with Omnipotence

If you have suffered gross injustice, a significant feature of what you suffered is that you didnt deserve it. So how could that offense be atoned for by merely giving someone what he deserves? For the punishment to fit the crime it should, theoretically, be extracted from someone as innocent as you were. It makes us recoil in horror, and yet there is no other way to perfectly balance the books. Jesus intervention suddenly brings to reality what would otherwise have seemed an impossible dream. In Jesus eyes the ghastly offense against you warranted the severest imaginable response. You suffered injustice, so to restore your honor, Christ voluntarily allowed himself to suffer the ultimate injustice. He was innocent, not just relative to the beast who hurt you, but in the absolute sense innocent to a degree unknown in all humanity. In the dazzling light of his holy perfection, the purest, sweetest virgin is defiled. And this Innocent of innocents suffered the vilest physical and spiritual abuse to pay the full penalty for the crime against you, because you are so important to him. This is the ultimate restoration of your honor.
