    How Can God Justly Put Man’s Sin Upon an Innocent Victim?

    God, through His Son, paid for the sins of mankind by Jesus' sacrifice on the cross. It would have been unjust to force someone else to pay for these sins, but since God Himself was the one who paid for the sins, it satisfied the cause of justice. Hebrews 10:12 states, "But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God." Peter declared that it was the blood of Christ that redeemed us from sin and death (1 Peter 1:18, 19).
