Jesus' body was beaten, wounded, and broken on the cross. We are healed today because of the suffering He willing experienced for you and me.
And He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds you were healed. - 1 Peter 2:24
The wonder of Easter begins at the cross. Without the cross, there is no Easter. As Jesus hung on the cross, the promise of forgiveness, cleansing, and healing was fulfilled.
Jesus was not a martyr, but a Lamb who laid down His life for you and me.
Because of Jesus suffering on the cross, you can live rightly before God. You can walk clean and pure before Him, and your every hurt, wound, and weakness of your past has been healed.
