THE men who were associated with Christ, are an object lesson for us, as to the difference there is between the believer and the unbeliever in relation to the question of sin. Let us look at the three men.
Upon the centre cross is Christ. Is there sin in Him? No. He did no sin (1 Peter 2:22), He knew no sin (2 Cor. 5:21), and in Him was no sin (1 John 3:5).
Was there sin on Him? Yes. For God made to meet upon Him the iniquity of us all (Isaiah 53:6, M.).
Was there sin in the thieves? Yes. For they were, like all, conceived in sin (Psalm 51:5).
Was there sin on the thieves? Yes, and no.
Upon the believing thief there was no sin, for Christ was his Sin-Bearer.
Upon the unbelieving thief there was sin, for he did not look to Christ for salvation from it.
| Believing thief. | Christ. | Unbelieving Thief. |
|---|---|---|
| Sin in him. | Sin not in Him. | Sin in him. |
| No sin on him. | Sin on Him. | Sin on him. |

The relation to Christ of the thieves made all the difference as to their state before God. So is it now. They who believe in Christ have their sins borne away by Christ (1 Peter 2:24), and those who do not are rewarded according to their works (Rev. 20:12).
