6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. 7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth (Isaiah 53:6-7).
The divine plan for salvation is of old. God Himself through the person and work of Christ paid the penalty for our sins. This passage from Isaiah, written some 700 years before Christ, is one of the primary scriptures depicting the substitutionary atonement. The substitutionary atonement ultimately satisfies the justice of God and allows the restoration of our relationship with God.
