To: Romulus
He was clothed with our sins - me

Can you elaborate? - Romulus

When describing the imputation of Righteousness in Galatians 3, Paul describes us as being "clothed in Christ" (v 27). I was merely using the same imagery to describe the imputation of our sin onto Christ.

I said "the purpose of the Crucifix," not "the purpose of the Crucifixion." - Romulus

Thanks for pointing that out. Concerning the Crucifix, the fact that Christ is pictured on the cross contains much greater significance than whether he's in the nude. We Prots obviously take umbrage to the underlying meanings, and we thus only use the Cross (symbolizing that Christ is no longer being sacrificed).

As for taglines, if you want to deform sacred scripture... - Romulus

Thanks for the reprimand. It is well received.
