Isaiah 53:4-6…. This is what it all leads to. This is the reason Jesus fulfilled the prophecies and suffered like He did. He went through all of this to take our place, to die for our sins so that we can have the opportunity to go to Heaven. We're all in the same boat with regard to this. None of us are better than another. We all need salvation and it is offered to all of us equally through the death and resurrection of the Messiah.
