Have You Claimed Christ as Your Lord and Savior Allowing Him to Strip Away Your Sin and Clothe You With His Righteousness; If Not, Why Not?

The Results of The Savior’s Suffering

10But it was the Lord’s good plan to bruise Him and fill Him with grief. However, when His soul has been made an offering for sin, then He shall have a multitude of children, many heirs. He shall live again,b and God’s program shall prosper in His hands. 11And when He sees all that is accomplished by the anguish of His soul, He shall be satisfied; and because of what He has experienced, My righteous Servant shall make many to be counted righteous before God, for He shall bear all their sins. 12Therefore, I will give Him the honors of one who is mighty and great because He has poured out His soul unto death. He was counted as a sinner, and He bore the sins of many, and He pled with God for sinners.[1] (Isaiah53:10–12)

 

The Closing Verses of This Great Prophecy About Christ’s Death

Describe the Results of The Savior’s Sufferings.

Up to this point, the bitter hatred and hostility of the Savior’s enemies, the cruel and brutal mistreatment of the Savior, and the horrible sufferings endured by the Savior have been the focus. But now the great victory of the cross is discussed. Six wonderful results have taken place since the death of God’s Servant, the Messiah, and Savior of the world, the Lord Jesus Christ: 

A. The Savior Became the Substitute Sacrifice for Sin (V. 10). His substitutionary death is the major theme of this great chapter of Isaiah. Jesus Christ did not die as a martyr, as someone put to death for his beliefs. Nor did He die as an example, as someone showing us how to face death with a positive attitude. He died neither by accident nor because fate decided it was time for Him to die. Jesus Christ died deliberately, purposefully, and at the hands of God the Father. God Himself had determined that His Son would die for the sins of the world. His death was predetermined, planned by God before human history even began: 

V  “Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know: Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain” (Ac. 2:22–23).

V  “[God] Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel” (2 Ti. 1:9–10). 

From the beginning, knowing that man would sin and need to be saved, it was God’s plan to bruise (crush) Christ on the cross. God filled Christ with the grief or suffering for the sins of the world. Christ Himself was to be offered up as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of every human being who ever lived. Never again would animal sacrifices be needed, for with Christ’s death, the perfect sacrifice to which they pointed had been offered. Jesus Christ, God’s very own Son, had died as the perfect offering, the substitute sacrifice for the sins of the entire world. Note how this fact is emphasized throughout the entire chapter:

Ø  He bore our griefs and sorrows (v. 4).

Ø  He was wounded for our transgression and bruised for our iniquities (v. 5).

Ø  The Lord laid on Him the iniquity of us all (v. 6).

Ø  He was brought as a lamb to the slaughter to be offered to God as a substitute sacrifice (v. 7).

Ø  He was stricken for the transgression of God’s people (v. 8).

Ø  God made His soul an offering for sin (v. 10).

Ø  He bore their iniquities (v. 11).

Ø  He bore the sins of many (v. 12).

 

V  “The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world” (Jn. 1:29).

V  “For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly” (Ro. 5:6).

V  “Purge out, therefore, the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us” (1 Co. 5:7).

V  “For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures” (1 Co. 15:3).

V  “And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again” (2 Co. 5:15).

V  “And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling savour” (Ep. 5:2).

V  “Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works” (Tit. 2:14).

V  “Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren” (1 Jn. 3:16). 

B. Through Death, The Savior Has Produced Many Offspring, A Multitude of People Who Truly Believe in Him and Follow His Righteous Commandments. Looking down through the centuries, Christ saw the true believers of every generation, those who would repent of their sins and turn back to God. He foresaw a victorious people who would conquer the temptations and trials of life, who would bear strong testimony to the gospel through His atoning sacrifice. A great, spiritual family of true believers has been born because the Savior died on the cross for their sins. 

V  “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name” (Jn. 1:12).

V  “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (Jn. 3:16).

V  “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek” (Ro. 1:16).

V  “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness, and with the mouth, confession is made unto salvation” (Ro. 10:9–10).

V  “And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast” (Ep. 2:1–9). 

C. The Savior Prolonged His Days. He Rose from The Dead and Now Advances God’s Work Throughout the World (V. 10). Jesus Christ is not dead. He did not remain in the grave. He arose and ascended into heaven, where He is seated at the right hand of God the Father. For the remainder of human history, Christ will be busy working all things out for good on behalf of true believers, those who genuinely love and obey Him. Working through His true followers, He is continuing to carry the gospel of salvation to the world. The deep longing of the Savior’s heart is for many more to be delivered from sin and death, for many to live eternally with Him. 

1)      Jesus Christ Arose from The Dead. 

V  “But ye denied the Holy One and the Just and desired a murderer to be granted unto you; And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses” (Ac. 3:14–15).

V  “And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all” (Ac. 4:33).

V  “And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree: Him God raised up the third day and showed him openly; Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before of God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead” (Ac. 10:39–41).

V  “And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three sabbath days reasoned with them out of the scriptures, Opening and alleging, that Christ must needs have suffered, and risen again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I preach unto you, is Christ” (Ac. 17:2–3).

V  “Concerning his [God’s] Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead” (Ro. 1:3–4).

V  “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart, man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth, confession is made unto salvation” (Ro. 10:9–10).

V  “Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures” (1 Co. 15:1–4).

V  “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you” (1 Pe. 1:3–4). 


2)      Jesus Christ Is Actively Working to Carry Out and Advance God’s Work on Earth. Through The Presence of The Holy Spirit in The Lives of Believers, Christ Helps Them as They Bear Testimony to The Message of Salvation. 

A)    Christ Comforts Believers Through the Person of The Holy Spirit.

V  “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you” (Jn. 14:26). 

B) Christ Bears Strong Testimony to The Salvation He Provides Through the Person of The Holy Spirit.

V  “But when the Comforter has come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me” (Jn. 15:26). 

C) Christ Pierces and Convicts the Heart of People Through the Person of The Holy Spirit.

V  “Nevertheless, I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. And when he has come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Of sin, because they believe not on me; Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged” (Jn. 16:7–11). 

D) Christ Sets People Free from The Law of Sin and Death Through the Law of His Spirit.

V  There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death” (Ro. 8:1–2). 

E) Christ Guarantees the Security of Those Who Truly Believe and Obey His Holy Commandments.

V  “Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, for thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Ro. 8:34–39). 

F) Christ Encourages and Helps Believers When They Are Tempted or Confronted with Any Severe Trial or Hardship.

V  “Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people. For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted” (He. 2:17–18).

V  “For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us, therefore, come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need” (He. 4:15–16). 

G) Christ Continually Intercedes for Believers. His Ministry of Intercession Means That He Represents, Upholds, and Prays for True Believers Throughout Their Entire Lives. Through His Death on The Cross, Christ Guaranteed Eternal Salvation for Every True Believer.

V  “Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people’s: for this, he did once, when he offered up himself” (He. 7:25–27). 

H) Christ Works All Things Out for Good for His People as They Carry on The Work of God.

V  “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose” (Ro. 8:28).

V  “Then said they unto him, what shall we do, that we might work the works of God? Jesus answered and said unto them, this is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent” (Jn. 6:28–29). 

D. The Savior Conquered Death and Brought Satisfaction to Everyone Involved (V. 11). When Christ looked back at all He had achieved, He felt a deep sense of fulfillment, for He had carried out God’s will perfectly. He had fully achieved that which He had set out to do, making it possible for all people to be forgiven their sins and to become acceptable to God. On the cross, Christ uttered these astounding words: “It is finished” (Jn. 19:30). The work of redemption was finished, and now any person who wishes can be reconciled with God. 

V  “When Jesus, therefore, had received the vinegar, he said, it is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost” (Jn. 19:30). 

God the Father was also satisfied, very pleased with the work of His Son. At both the baptism and the resurrection of Jesus Christ, God announced, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased” (Mt. 3:17; 17:5; Mk. 1:11; 9:7; Lu. 3:22; 9:35; 2 Pe. 1:17). God put His stamp of approval upon His Son throughout His entire life, for Christ always did those things that pleased the Father, in particular dying upon the cross. 

V  “And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him” (Jn. 8:29).

V  “Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know: Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain: Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it” (Ac. 2:22–24). 

Naturally, believers find deep satisfaction and fulfillment in the cross. When believers turn to the Lord by faith, they are set free from their sin, death, and the judgment to come. Furthermore, they are given the wonderful inheritance of living eternally with God in the promised land of heaven. 

V  “The word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:)” (Ac. 10:36).

V  “And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven” (Col. 1:20).

V  “Let us, therefore, fear, lest a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it. For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it. For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world” (He. 4:1–3).

V  “There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. Let us labour, therefore, to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief” (He. 4:9–11).

V  “As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness” (Ps. 17:15).

V  “For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness” (Ps. 107:9). 

E. The Savior Made Justification Possible Through His Death on The Cross (V. 11). To justify means to declare a person righteous. Justice always demands that the lawbreaker be condemned and the righteous be set free. Since all of us have broken God’s law, we all stand condemned to bear the penalty, which is death. But Christ has already died for us, bearing the penalty of death on our behalf. Therefore, if we trust Christ as our Savior, allowing Him to cover us with His righteousness, God justifies us. He declares us righteous. He credits righteousness to our account. This is the meaning of justification. We are not righteous, but God declares us righteous when we give our lives to His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. Justification is one of the greatest gifts we receive as a result of Christ’s death on the cross. 

V  “Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord” (Ac. 3:19).

V  “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God” (Ro. 3:23–25).

V  “Therefore, as by the offence of one [Adam] judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one, the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous” (Ro. 5:18–19).

V  “Therefore, being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ” (Ro. 5:1).

V  “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God” (1 Co. 6:9–11, esp. v. 11).

V  “Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness” (Ga. 3:6).

V  “But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed. Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith” (Ga. 3:22–24). 

F. The Savior Is Now Honored by Believers as The Great Conqueror and Victor, The Lord, and Sovereign Majesty of The Universe (V. 12). Believers look to Christ as the great conqueror of sin, death, and hell. But not everyone believes that Jesus Christ is the Savior, the promised Messiah. Some do not even believe in God, much less in Jesus Christ. Nevertheless, the day is coming when God the Father will send Jesus Christ back to earth. In the last days of human history, Christ will return to set up God’s kingdom on earth. In that day, every knee will bow, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is indeed who He claimed to be: the promised Messiah, the Savior of the world. In that day, even the unbelievers—those who rejected the Savior, the great and the small, the rulers and the citizens—will bow the knee before Him. 

When that day arrives, believers will receive their reward. Christ will divide the wealth of His conquests with the strong, those who have placed their trust in Christ. Believers will appropriately exalt His name to the highest …

·         because He died as a transgressor for them

·         because He bore their sins

·         because He made intercession for all sinners 

For these reasons and so many more, Jesus Christ will be exalted on high. He will be given all the praise from all creatures of all time, both in this and any other universe that might exist. He will be given all the glory, majesty, dominion, and power, forever and ever. And in that day, believers will stand in stark amazement because Christ will share His inheritance with all who truly believe and love Him. 

V  “In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also” (Jn. 14:2–3).

V  “The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us” (Ro. 8:16–18).

V  “For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God” (Ro. 14:11).

V  “Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling” (Ph. 2:6–12).

V  “For our conversation [conversation] is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself” (Ph. 3:20–21).

V  “When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory” (Col. 3:4).

V  “Therefore, I endure all things for the elect’s sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory” (2 Ti. 2:10).

V  “For the Lord, himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words” (1 Th. 4:16–18).

V  “The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed” (1 Pe. 5:1).

V  “Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest” (Re. 15:4).

V  “And there shall be no night there, and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign forever and ever” (Re. 22:5).

V  “Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else. I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, that unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear” (Is. 45:22–23).

V  “And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord” (Is. 66:23).[2] 

These verses not only speak of Christ’s sacrifice, but also speaks of the enormous family of believers who will become right with God, not by their own works, but by the Messiah’s great work on the cross. They are justified because they have claimed Christ, the righteous servant, as their Savior and Lord (Romans 10:9; 2 Corinthians 5:21). Their life of sin is stripped away, and they are clothed with Christ’s goodness (Ephesians 4:22–24). 

Have you claimed Christ as your Lord and Savior allowing His to strip away your sin and clothing you with His goodness and righteousness; if not, why not?[3]
