The Substitute on the Cross is a detailed KJV sermon outline from VerseQuest Ministries built on 2 Corinthians 5:21. This study explains the substitutionary work of Jesus Christ, who knew no sin yet was made sin for us, that believers might be made the righteousness of God in Him. It shows why sinners need a Substitute, why Christ alone qualified as the sinless Lamb, how He bore our sins in His own body on the tree, and how His death satisfied the justice of God. Designed for pastors, preachers, teachers, Bible students, and believers, this sermon resource explains imputed righteousness, substitutionary atonement, propitiation, justification by faith, the resurrection, and the finished work of Christ. With strong King James Bible emphasis, it rejects salvation by works, religion, baptism, sacraments, law-keeping, morality, or human merit, and magnifies Jesus Christ as the sinner’s only Substitute.
