Episode notes
Why Jesus Was Numbered With Transgressors
- Jesus was willingly numbered with transgressors to act as advocate and identify with sinners before the bench of justice.
- Frazer Blaxland explains this identification lets Jesus point to his wounds and plead his blood so the judge can proclaim deliverance and ransom.
Advocate Who Stands With the Accused
- Being numbered with sinners makes Jesus a legal advocate who stands with the accused and answers accusations against them.
- Blaxland describes Jesus pointing to his side, hands, and feet while triumphantly pleading his blood for their pardon.
Come Boldly Because Jesus Is Numbered With You
- Rejoice in your union with Christ and come boldly to him because being numbered with us means he cannot condemn us.
- Blaxland urges believers to confess guilt boldly, since Jesus' identification draws hearts to him and secures pardon.
