sermon on galatians 3:13

But there was a great intermediate element between the turpitude and the suffering;and this it was that Christ was made in the whole fearful reality of it — even the guilt (the reatus, as the Latins spoke) — the just liability in law, and in the eye of the lawgiver, to endure the suffering, the punishment, the curse. Spurgeon. — "My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death; tarry ye here and watch with Me" — "Oh My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from Me" — "My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me?" But by reason of the union of the two natures in His wonderful person, He could do it, and hath done it for us. The words bad hardly left his lips when, with tears of pity brimming in his eyes, a boy stepped bravely out, pulled his jacket off, and pushing the culprit aside, offered his own back and shoulders to the rod. God is angry with the wicked every day: His wrath towards sin is great.3. How was it to be removed?1. If Christ's death satisfied God for our sins, how unparalleled is the love of Christ to poor sinners!4. The doctrine of Christ's satisfaction is absurd, for Christ (say we) is God; if so, then God satisfies Himself, than which what can be more absurd to imagine? And, therefore, look upon thy sins as horrid and heinous as thou canst; yet, unless thine in particular have been more than the sins of all the world, unless thine have been more sinful than sin itself can be, know, for thy comfort, that a full atonement is made, and now nothing is expected from thee but only to accept, it, and to walk worthy of it.(E. If Christ, by dying, hath made full satisfaction, then God is no loser in pardoning the greatest of sinners that believe in Jesus; and consequently His justice can be no bar to their justification and salvation. Yea, and He is the fountain of all blessing, whence flow all our hopes and happiness. What a picture of the prophet's "Awake, O sword, against My shepherd, and against the man that is My fellow, saith the Lord of Hosts; smite the shepherd!" As soon as ever the least breath of this contagion seized upon them, God turned the angels out of heaven, and man out of Paradise; He subjected the whole creation unto vanity, that nothing but fears, care, sorrow, and disappointment reign here below; and under these woeful effects of the Divine wrath we groan and sign away our days. And can there any, in this forlorn and desperate ease, interpose to shelter the trembling sinner from so great, so deserved, so imminent a destruction? And now, not only are we thus delivered from the law's terrible sentence, but — the stone which lay over the grave of our corruption once removed — the way is open for the Holy Ghost's descending into it to make an end of our corruption too, — yea, open for the whole blessing of the Abrahamic covenant, "I will be a God to thee," coming on believers everywhere, of the Gentiles and of the Jews alike — from which blessing the apostle singles out the promise of the Holy Ghost, as being the centre and sum of it all, saying, "Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, etc., that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith." God's curse of something more than a threatening; He comes at length to blows. Galatians, Expository Sermons - From The Executable Outlines Series by Mark A.

For Christ, by an altogether peculiar Divine constitution — of infinite grace alike on the Father's part and on His own — had become the Head of His body the Church, — taken their place in law — become one with them in law for ever. God alone can bring His curse on any man. Fifthly, THERE ARE CERTAIN GREAT CENTRAL THINGS AMONG THE TYPES OF THE OLD TESTAMENT WHICH CAST MUCH LIGHT OVER THE MYSTERIOUS FACT IN OUR TEXT, AND, IN THEIR TURN, RECEIVE IMPORTANT LIGHT FROM IT. Pardon could not be an act of pure grace, if God received satisfaction from us; but if He pardon us upon the satisfaction received from Christ, though it be of debt to Him, it is of grace to us: for it was grace to admit a surety to satisfy, more grace to provide Him, and most of all to apply His satisfaction to us, by uniting us to Christ, as He hath done.4. A proper redemption is by paying a price and ransom. St. Vincent do Paul was at one time almoner-general to the prison ships in the chief harbours of France, during the reign of Louis XIII. For, besides the frightfulness of such a thing to be even imagined, it were in contradiction to the express words, "He hath made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us." Every one, therefore, that is afflicted is not presently accursed. Fifthly, THERE ARE CERTAIN GREAT CENTRAL THINGS AMONG THE TYPES OF THE OLD TESTAMENT WHICH CAST MUCH LIGHT OVER THE MYSTERIOUS FACT IN OUR TEXT, AND, IN THEIR TURN, RECEIVE IMPORTANT LIGHT FROM IT. He was soon sought out and released, but the hurts he had received from the pressure of the chains lasted all his life .... After this St. Vincent worked with infinitely more force on the consciences of the convicts for having been for a time one of themselves. ")Our redemption by ChristE. The primary intent of the law is reparation and satisfaction; he that can make it at one entire payment (as Christ could and did) ought to be discharged. Infirmary, suffering from an affection of the throat, supposed to be diphtheria. It is impossible to read the Gospel histories without perceiving that by far His deepest agonies were those which He endured when there was no hand of man upon Him at all, or when, at least, He himself traces the suffering to another hand altogether — saying, for example, "Now is My soul troubled; and what shall I say? Donald Macleod writes, A Faith to Live By, p. 146). For want of rightly distinguishing between these, too many have been woefully staggered and perverted in their faith; and have been induced to believe that Christ died not in the stead of any, but only for the good of all, as the Socinians blaspheme. (4) God so severely punisheth His Son that the extremity of His sufferings might be a caution to us, and affect us with a holy dread and fear how we provoke so just and so jealous a God. Now, because of this natural conjunction, the transferring the punishment from us, who are guilty, unto Christ, who is guiltless, doth, at least in this respect, answer the rules and measures of justice; that although the same person be not punished, yet the same nature is. (2ndly) That satisfaction might be made to offended justice in the same nature which transgressed; that as it was man which sinned, so man also might be punished. For there is such an intimate union by faith between Christ and a believer, that they make up but one mystical person. "Christ hath redeemed us," etc.I. Let these words, for example, be carefully observed (Leviticus 16:27, 28), "The bullock for the sin offering, and the goat for the sin-offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the holy place, shall one carry forth without the camp; and they shall burn in the fire their skin, and their flesh, and their dung. Men curse by imprecation; but God curseth more effectually by ordination and infliction. The blood of the man Christ Jesus is the matter of the satisfaction; the Divine nature dignifies it, and makes it of infinite value.2. Read again, for instance, that fourth verse of the following chapter, "When the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth His Son, made of a woman, made under the law" — under the law? This, at the first glance of our thoughts upon it, seems very difficult, if not impossible, to be reconciled. For whose sake was Christ thus accursed and punished? I this day bring unto all penitent and humble souls the glad tidings of great joy; joy which, if excess of fear and horror have not altogether stupefied and made us insensible, must needs fill us with the highest raptures of triumph and exultations. He must not take the person of one individual man (such as Abraham, Moses, Elias), but He must take the nature of all, and sum up all mankind in Himself.3. Substantially it is this, that God never has had a quarrel with man, but only man a quarrel with God, — that God never has been angry with men, but men only jealous of Him; and that the whole design, of Christ's coming into the world, and of His suffering unto death was to convince men of this — who, as soon as they are persuaded to believe it — to believe that God loves them, and has loved them always, are saved. It is the curse of God. As if to say that when God appointed the sin-offerings of the law to be carried forth outside the camp as unclean and accursed, and to be burned in the fire, it was but a figure of our Lord Jesus, laden with our accursed iniquities, made sin and a curse, numbered with the transgressors, dealt with as the vilest of all — not by man so much as by God, the Holy One of Israel — because the Lord had, with His own most free consent, made to meet on Him the iniquities of us all. He pays a full price, every way adequate and proportionable to the wrong.3. Three words in conclusion.1. There must be fellowship with Christ.3. For the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?". The blessings of salvation are to be obtained in Christ (ἐν Χριστῷ). What it is to be made a curse. Men curse by imprecation; but God curseth more effectually by ordination and infliction. The same may be said of all the afflictions with which God, for gracious ends, now exercised His reconciled ones. But His benevolent love, consisting in His purpose of good, may be before actual reconciliation and satisfaction.5. Be exhorted to admire and adore the infinite love of our Lord Jesus Christ towards fallen and undone mankind, in that He was pleased to substitute Himself in our stead, and, when the hand of justice was lifted up against us, to thrust Himself between us and the dread effects of the Divine wrath, receiving into His own bosom all the arrows of God's quiver, every one of them dipped in the poison of the curse(1) Consider the infinite glory and dignity of our Lord Jesus Christ. A proper redemption is by paying a price and ransom. To them the law of God was very peculiarly given beyond all others.2. Birch. But, secondly, at once the question arises, HOW COULD SUCH A THING EVER BE? The operation of tracheotomy was performed by Mr. W. C. Lysaght, M.R.C.S., assistant medical officer to the Infirmary; but the tube becoming choked, the last chance of saving the man's life was for some one to apply his lips to the tube and suck the moisture. (3) The internal moving cause of Christ's satisfaction for us was His obedience to God, and love to us. Another gospel truly — which in fact turns the whole mission and work of our Lord Jesus Christ into an unreality! He pays a full price, every way adequate and proportionable to the wrong.3. He was left with no sense of God's love and no sense of the operation of God's purpose." The Jewish nation. This Mr. Lysaght did, but without avail, for shortly afterwards the patient died of suppressed scarlatina. First of all, I lay down this position as certain (however unlikely it might have seemed to us beforehand:), that the curse which the apostle speaks of is the curse of God. And he that burneth them shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp." Then in the thirteenth verse, where the text lies, "Christ," says he, "hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us." Flood. Father, save Me from this hour? BLESSING THROUGH CHRIST. (2) He suffered our punishment to free us from it.II. Thus we are said to be redeemed from(1)our vain conversation (1 Peter 1:18);(2)death (Hosea 12:14);(3)the devil (Colossians 2:15);(4)all iniquity (Titus 2:14);(5)the curse of the law (Galatians 3:13; Galatians 4:5).It is, of course, not meant that the ransom is paid to the devil, or to sin. Christ was no curse in Himself. Beyond all doubt the meaning is, Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, having borne that curse — been made the curse of the law for us.
