Who could pay the ransom to free us from death? When we die, we pay the penalty only for our own sins. No imperfect man can pay for the sins of others. –Psalm 49:7-9. Since Jesus did not inherit imperfection from a human father, he died, not because of his own sins, but for the sins of others. God sent his Son to die for us as an expression of his extraordinary love for mankind. Jesus also showed love for us by obeying his Father and giving his life for our sins.—John 3:16; Roman 5:18-19.
