Paragraph 2. JESUS DIED CRUCIFIED
602
Consequently, St. Peter can formulate the apostolic faith in the divine plan of
salvation in this way: “You were ransomed from the futile ways inherited
from your fathers… with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb
without blemish or spot. He was destined before the foundation of the world but
was made manifest at the end of the times for your sake.”402 Man’s
sins, following on original sin, are punishable by death.403 By sending
his own Son in the form of a slave, in the form of a fallen humanity, on
account of sin, God “made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we
might become the righteousness of God.”404
