A way out

From almost the very beginning we have sinned. In the garden, when Eve took that single bite of fruit from the forbidden tree. Sin became part of the world. When God confronted Adam and Eve on the sin that they committed, neither took blame. Eve blamed the serpent, Adam blamed Eve. And therefore sin appeared. We as people blame everything on other people. We don't stop to think that maybe it is our fault. Jesus didn't blame us for OUR sin. He took full responsibility and punishment as He hung there by His hands and feet. A crown of thorns upon His head. Held up by only 3 nails on the cross. Blood pouring from his shredded body. Gashed and cut, bruised and broken. He took our sin and rewarded us for it. He loved us, and did not want to see us suffer. He gave us a way out.
