Jesus tasted death for us. We don't really think we deserve death for our sins. Somewhere in our minds, we have rationalized that our sins aren't that bad. Then we settle into a lower punishment for sins. We settle into the idea that God would maybe, make us sick or maybe he caused me to loose a job because I sinned. So we look at the circumstances and consequences and we ascribe that to God. In God's economy, the only adequate punishment for our sin is death. Jesus took it all. God is satisfied! Jesus tasted death for every man.
