The chemistry of salvation

NaCl (Sodium Chloride) is the scientific name for salt. Sodium and Chlorine are two elements that are deadly poison in their elemental state. But when they are joined together they form a substance that is necessary for life.

Sin is a deadly element. It separates us eternally from the presence of God.
Crucifixion is a deadly event. It served as a ghastly life-ending punishment for wrongdoing.

But when our sin was combined with Christ's crucifixion, it created salvation, which is necessary for our eternal life. How awesome is that?
