Why must the Redeemer be a true and righteous human?

The Redeemer must be a true and righteous human because the justice of God requires that only one with a human nature who has not sinned may pay for my sin.

(Rom 5:12, 15; 1 Cor 15:21; Heb 2:14–16; 7:26–27; 1 Pet 3:18)

 


Memory Verse

Hebrews 2:17

Therefore he had to be made like his brothers in every respect, so that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.
