But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. — Isaiah 53:5

I don’t understand how Jesus could be powerful enough to support it. All of our sins were assumed by him. He allowed it to all be placed on him so that we wouldn’t be responsible for the consequences. However, we are healed as a result of that terrible sacrifice. The worst illness a person can have is a sin-sick soul, which is treated by God. He was pierced, beaten, and punished for our sins. He has given us his tranquility and a position in which we are at home.
