For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed, to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus."Verse 25 says, "Whom God set forth as a propitiation." Propitiation is another word for substitute. I don't know why the word "propitiation" is used instead of "substitute" because propitiation is not a word we use much in our English language. The scripture says God sent Jesus as a substitute.
(Rom. 3:23-26)
