Mark Vestal
Failure is inevitable since the fall of man occurred in the Garden of Eden (Rom 5:12). It is the reason why we need a savior. Jesus Christ was perfect on our behalf. He, who knew no sin, was made to be sin for us (2 Cor 5:21). He took the punishment on the cross that we deserve, was buried, but rose again the 3rd day so that we may have life after our physical failed lives of this present evil world have ended (Gal 1:4). We now have hope through His perfection as our faith in Him and His accomplishment on the cross for us makes us the righteousness of God in Him (2 Cor 5:21). We find peace knowing that our failures were imputed on Christ (2 Cor 5:19) and not ourselves during God's dispensation of grace (Eph 3:2).
