Day 15 • Question 37
37
What
do
you
confess
when
you
say
that
he
suffered?
During
all
the
time
he
lived
on
earth,
but
especially
at
the
end,
Christ
bore
in
body
and
soul
the
wrath
of
God
against
the
sin
of
the
whole
human
race.
1
Thus,
by
his
suffering,
as
the
only
atoning
sacrifice,
2
he
has
redeemed
our
body
and
soul
from
everlasting
damnation,
3
and
obtained
for
us
the
grace
of
God,
righteousness,
and
eternal
life.
