2 Cor. 5:21
He took our position with all its consequence, that we might have His position with all its consequences.
He was treated as sin upon the cross; that we might be treated as righteousness in the presence of God.
He was cast out of God's presence because He had sin upon Him, by imputation; that we might be received into God's bosom because we have perfect righteousness upon us, by imputation.
He passed through three hours of darkness; that we might walk in everlasting light.
All that was due to us as ruined sinners was laid upon Him; that all that was due to Him as accomplisher of redemption might be ours.
There was everything against Him when He hung upon the accursed tree; that there might be nothing against us when we stand before God.
