Jesus is the only sacrifice that is sufficient for you, me, and everyone else. He is the only atonement that will make each person clean from their sins. It is our faith that makes us righteous because we choose a personal relationship with Jesus. You display your gratitude to Jesus by not sinning any more.
The things is that when you have been enslaved to sin for so long it does not come naturally to stop sinning. You walk into salvation like a spiritual baby. All your past sins are removed, but you have to learn how to live righteous and holy.. As you discover sin in your life, you repent and remove it. Then you deal with all the scars and aftermath from that sin.
If you are Christian, sin should break your heart. You have an unique perspective on sin because as you mature in faith, you are able to see it more clearly for what it is. You are given an exclusive understanding to the cost of sin.
When you decide that you are going to live life like Jesus, you have to decide to die to the flesh/ When you give up your pride, self-importance, and selfish nature, your spirit is allowed to live. You are able to hear the Holy Spirit guide you throughout your day.
Jesus came into this world fully God and fully human. He held back all he could do as God to live the life of purpose. He died and then he resurrected as predicted centuries before. His resurrection completed the sacrifice that is sufficient for all people. He accomplished everything he set out to do and then he returned home. When he left this world he was still human, but he was not longer holding back all he could do. He raised himself back up to Heaven.
Isaiah 2:5-11, 2 Corinthians 12:1-4, Philippians 2:3-11, Hebrew 10:8-10, & 1 Peter 3:18
