Scriptures:
1 Peter 2:22-25
“He committed no sin, and no deceit was found in his
mouth.”
When they hurled their insults at him, he did not
retaliate; when he suffered, he made no threats. Instead, he entrusted himself
to him who judges justly. He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so
that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have
been healed. For you were like sheep going astray, but now you have returned to
the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.
John 8:12
When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."
Acts 5:30
The God of our fathers raised Jesus from the dead—whom you had killed by hanging him on a tree.
Acts 10:39
“We are witnesses of everything he did in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They killed him by hanging him on a tree….”
Acts 13:29
When they had carried out all that was written about him, they took him down from the tree and laid him in a tomb.
Galatians 3:13
Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”
