Charles Simeon, when young, read in a book that the Jews knew what they did, when they transferred their sin to the head of their offering.
The thought rushed into his mind—What! may I transfer my guilt to another? Has God provided an Offering for me, that I may lay my sins on His head?
Then, God willing, I will not bear them on my own soul one moment longer; for I see that God laid my sins on Jesus!
"Now once in the end of the world hath He appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself. And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: so Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many." Hebrews 9:26-28.
