Sometime with laconic statements, volumes can be spoken and pastor, preacher, Bible teacher and profilic author, Dr. Henry Allen Ironside, who is commonly known as the Archbishop of Fundamentalism, once aptly put it “[Jesus] Christ is the substitute for everything, but nothing is a substitute for Christ [Jesus]“.
Jesus said, “without me, you can do nothing” (John 15:5). There is no substitute for Christ. He Himself bore our sins, in His own body on the tree [Cross], that we being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes we are healed (1 peter 2:24).
Point(s) to ponder:
Jesus Christ is God’s sacrifice, our Substitute and no one, nor anything, can take his place.
