A sinless Christ (2 Cor 5:21, Heb 4:15, 1 Jn 3:5 1 Pet 1:19, 1 Pet 2:22) willingly (Matt 26:53) became sin (2 Cor 5:21) a curse (Gal 3:13) to rescue believers from sin & death.
Rom 5:
17 For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)
18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.
19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.
Jesus was sinless, did no wrong & was OBEDIENT unto death. Fixing what Adam's sinful DIS-obedience broke. Faith placed in Jesus sin atoning sacrificial offering. Takes away (Jn 1:29, Rev 1:5) ALL the believers sin judgement/punishment due. His resurrection is Father God's declaration, Jesus once for all time (Heb 9:28, 10:10) sin sacrifice/offering, paid sins required wage (Rom 6:23), in full.

Rom 8:32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
(MY NOTE: Jesus PAID sins required wage! By FAITH in His sacrificial work, believers FREELY receive God's blessings!)
2 Cor 5:21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
(MY NOTE: He never sinned, yet, He became sin. So, ALL that trust in His FINISHED sin atoning work, He declares them righteous)
Gal 3:
13 Christ hath redeemed us from the "curse of the law"" """being made a curse""" for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
(MY NOTE: OT law keeping brought blessing Deut 28:1-15 or CURSES Deut 28:16:-68). A sinless Jesus kept the law & deserved all of the Law's blessings. Yet, willingly (Matt 26:53) ""WAS MADE SIN & A CURSE"" & took every believers due sin judgment)
When we place our Faith/trust in Christ's sin atoning sacrifice. Found in his death (sins required wage PAID), burial (proof Christ died) & resurrection (Father God's receipt, payment received & accepted). Jesus imputes/transfers our sin onto Himself. (See this process in Lev 4:22,24,27,29,31,32,33,35 & Lev 16:21) Jesus also imputes/transfers His Righteousness onto us. (See Rom 3:22, 4:11,22-25, Rom 4:8, 2 Cor 5:21, Phil 3:9, Ja 2:23) onto the believer.
The PRICE Jesus PAID to buy/purchase (1 Cor 6:20, 7:23, 2 Pet 2:1, Acts 20:28, Eph 1:14) our redemption (Gal 3:13, 1 Pet 1:18, Rev 5:9) is unimaginable.
He became a curse (Gal 3:13) He became sin (2 Cor 5:21) taking ALL our sins Due/Required Judgment/Punishment. His face was beaten beyond recognition (Isa 52:14) All His back flesh removed by repeated Cat O' 9 tails lashes, publicly humiliated/striped nude, forced to carry a wooden cross up a hill, God in the flesh (1 Tim 3:16) mocked, spit on & nailed to a cross.
He could have ended this anytime (Matt 26:53). But, had He quit, we'd been forever lost. (Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for others (Jn 15:13)
Time for people to quit focusing on themselves: Their sins, their enduring, their abiding, their repentance, their good works/bad works etc...
Time to focus on Jesus: He won the war, did ALL the work & deserves ALL the praise, glory, honor & thanksgiving!
Jesus is our Rock, rescuer, strength, sustainer, fortress, stronghold, high tower, shield, buckler, Savior & GOD. Hallelujah! Thank you Lord Jesus! Amen...
