As a descendant of Adam, Christ was 'made' a 'sinner' and therefore had to die, as all Adam's descendants were classified as sinners worthy of death due to his sin. God did not change this principle, He let it affect Christ too. God "made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin" (2 Cor. 5:21).
Akiwa mzao wa Adamu Kristo,‘alifanywa’ kuwa ‘mwenye dhambi’ na kwa hiyo ilimbidi afe, kama watoto wote wa Adamu walivyoainishwa kuwa watenda dhambi nao wamestahili mauti kwa sababu ya dhambi. Mungu hakubadili jambo hili, Aliliacha likamdhuru Kristo naye pia. Mungu "alimfanya kuwa dhambi kwa ajili yetu, yeye asiyejua dhambi" (2Kor 5:21)
