Christ's Expiation
Exodus 12:13
And the blood shall be to you for a token on the houses where you are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you…


"In what way can the death of Christ, considered as a sacrifice of expiation, be conceived to operate to the remission of sins?" Archbishop Magee replies: "To this the Christian answer is, 'I know not, nor does it concern me to know, in what manner the sacrifice of Christ is connected with the forgiveness of sins; it is enough that this is declared by God to be the medium through which my salvation is effected. I pretend not to dive into the counsels of the Almighty. I submit to His wisdom.'"
