A Cross

Cruel 
Cross
Suffering 
Cross
Painful
Cross
Humiliating
Cross
"But he was wounded for our transgressions
He was bruised for our iniquities
The chastisement of our peace was upon him
And with His stripes we are healed"
The cost
Of Cross
Equaled
Forgiveness
Mercy
Healing 
Peace
Eternal life  

Quotation marks: Isaiah 53:5
Transgression means to revolt, rebel, sin against human or divine authority
Like if I deliberately step on your foot with the intent to hurt you_
Iniquities means sin, wickedness, often with the focus with the guilt or liability incurred
