For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. — Romans 5:6

Jesus didn’t die for us because he had high hopes for who we are or what we will become. No, he died for us because he knew exactly who we were and what we would become without him. God be praised! Because Jesus took our sin upon himself and gave us God’s grace and righteousness in its place, we are now God’s righteousness (2 Corinthians 5:17-21).
