What it means
The cross deals with sin at its root so that we can live rightly, and Peter seals it with Isaiah’s word of healing, spoken as already given.
Peter writes to scattered, suffering believers and points them to Christ’s own suffering. He quotes Isaiah 53 as a man who saw the wounds himself.
Where it addresses you
You need assurance that the price has already been paid.
Sin and sickness have both left their mark on you.
Found in Healing.
