But He was wounded 

   for our transgressions,

He was bruised for our iniquities;

upon Him was the chastisement 

          that made us whole.,

and with His stripes

               we are healed.

All we like sheep have gone astray,

we have turned each one

          to his own way,

and the LORD has laid on Him,

the iniquity of us all.

                    Isaiah 53. 5-6

(There is no Easter

   without Good Friday.

God loves us that much.

These words in Isaiah were

prophesied 800 years 

before Christ came to earth

to save us from our sin.)
