Jesus Was Wounded for My Transgressions

“But he [was] wounded for our transgressions, [he was] bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace [was] upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.”
He took on Himself the body of a man, and the Bible says, *“you’ll see the Son of Man coming in the clouds” (Matthew 24:30). He became a man that we might be Joint Heirs with Him. Scars are still on His Back from the terrible lashing He received. He said to His disciples, “Handle me, and see: for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have” (Luke 24:39).*
He told Mary, *“Don’t touch me, I have not yet ascended.” But now He has ascended. He has obtained Eternal Redemption for us! He is now the risen Christ from the dead, the first born among many brethren. He talked to Mary Magdalene early the third day. “Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away. Jesus saith unto her, Mary. She turned herself, and saith unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master. Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and [to] my God, and your God.’ (John 20:15-17).*
