(TEXT : Galatians 3:13) Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
FOCUS :
Jesus’ body on the tree is the symbolic for atonement for all our sins. And before the body can be offered, there has to be an “hanging of the entire body on the tree” for public humiliation. And from His body comes His blood that washes all sins; that no blood (human beings or animals) is able to make the atonements for all. Except for the Blood of the only begotten Son of God. Who truly loved us and surrendered His life for “public humiliation on the tree.” The Blood of Jesus cleanses us all from all kinds of sin for salvation, from all curses for blessings, and from all condemnation to enteral life.
Job 33:28
He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light.
John 5:24
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
Revelation 21:27
And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb’s book of life.
In addition, Deuteronomy 21:22-23 And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and he be to be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree: His body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt in any wise bury him that day; (for he that is hanged is accursed of God;) that thy land be not defiled, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.
The reason that the religious leaders of Israel demanded that Jesus be put on the Cross Matthew 27:23. They knew that one put on the tree was accursed of God, and so they reasoned that the people would then think, were He really the Messiah, God would never allow Him to be put on the Cross. They did not realize that the Lord had foretold the event of the Cross some 1,500 years earlier, as it concerned the brazen serpent on the pole Numbers 21:8-9. It was necessary that Jesus go to the Cross, in order that He might atone for all the sins of mankind, at least for all who will believe. So, Jesus was made a curse on the Cross, not because of His sins, for He had none, but for the sin of the whole world, and for all time.
John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
Finally, Jesus has died on the Cross for us all more than 2,000 years ago, and His sacrifice on that tree still stayed fresh till this moment. However, the impact of the sacrifice can only be seen in the lives of those who “BELIEVED IN HIM.” You can’t access the blessing on the Cross if you don’t believe Him who is the sacrifice on the Cross. The blessings flows directly from the Cross and overwhelmed those who are below Him abundantly. You must have Faith by looking up to Him who has been hanged on the Cross for your sake. Every true believers total survival depends on Him who is on the Cross.
Psalms 34:5
They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.
Hebrews 12:2-3 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.
