Chapter 14 We Must Be Saved From Committing Other Sins “And the Word was made flesh” (John 1:14). “When the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth His Son, made of a woman” (Gal. 4:4). “And the Lord hath laid on Him the iniquity of us all” (Isa. 53:6). We have seen that, in His being made of a woman, Christ reached sin at the very fountain head of its entrance into this world; and that He must be made of a woman to do this. And thus all the sin of this world, from its origin in the world to the end of it in the world, was laid upon Him; both sin as it is in itself and sin as it is when committed by us; sin in its tendency, and sin in the act; sin as it is hereditary in us, 104
uncommitted by us, and sin as it is committed by us. Only thus could it be that there should be laid upon Him the iniquity of us all. Only by His subjecting himself to the law of heredity could He reach beyond the generation living in the world while He was here. Without this there could be laid upon Him our sins, which have been actually committed, with the guilt and condemnation that belongs to them. But, beyond this, there is in each person, in many ways, the liability to sin inherited from generations back, which has not yet culminated in the act of sinning, but which is ever ready, when occasion offers, but which is ever ready, when occasion offers, to blaze forth in the actual committing of sin. David’s great sin is an illustration of this. (Ps. 51:3; 2 Sam. 11:2). In delivering us from sin, it is not enough that we shall be saved from the sins that we have actually committed; we must be saved from committing other sins. And that this may be so, there must be met and subdued this hereditary 105
