We use a lot of visuals in our videos, so if you want to see the visuals, we invite you to find us on YouTube.

Thanks for listening and enjoy.

I'm Taylor. And I'm Tyler. This is Scripture Central's Come Follow Me Insights. This week, 2 Corinthians chapters 1 through 7.

So if you could give a title to this particular book of Scripture, 2 Corinthians,

there are a lot of potential answers here, but my favorite option would be to call this epistle the great exchange.

Because what's going on here is incredibly powerful in not just its historical setting, but in its doctrinal setting. So if we if we actually begin,

not in chapter one, but go clear over to chapter five, verse 21. So this is called in in many circles.

This is called the great exchange verse. Listen to this. For he hath made him,

so that he would be God hath made his son to be sin for us who knew no sin, that we might be made

the righteousness of God in Him. So what's happening,

that might have sounded a little complicated at first. But what you have is Christ, who is in his

perfection, us who are in our imperfection, in our sinful, carnal, fallen state,

and then you have God the Father who sees our fallen state, and there's nothing we can do about it.

I can't resurrect myself, and I can't go into the

past and fix what I did wrong because I'm imperfect. But Christ, who never did any wrong,

he could help us. And so what this becomes is a great exchange. It's one of the most merciful verses in all the scripture canon that we have. With that understanding, let's look at it one more time. For he hath made him to be sin for us. So he has Christ take upon himself our sin. He becomes the embodiment of our

effects of the fall, if you will. And yet he knew no sin, but he becomes the embodiment of our sin,

because of this exchange that's taking place, that we might be made the righteousness of God

in Him. So it's this beautiful interchange that's taking place. So it's this beautiful interchange that's taking place throughout Second Corinthians,

but it really culminates right there in Chapter 5, verse 21.

This is powerful how Paul takes situations going on in the Corinthian Ward,
