This verse, drawn from the prophetic writings of Isaiah, speaks directly to the suffering servant, foretelling the sacrificial death of Christ hundreds of years before it happened. The imagery on this shirt is a visual declaration of that prophetic fulfillment and serves as a bold, personal witness to the healing found in Jesus alone.
The Power Behind the Verse
Isaiah 53:5 (KJV) says:
“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.”
Let that sink in:
Wounded for our transgressions: He bore the penalty we deserved.
Bruised for our iniquities: He carried the weight of our sin.
Chastisement for our peace: He took the punishment so we could live in spiritual peace.
With His stripes we are healed: Through His suffering, we are made whole.
This is the heart of the Gospel. Not just forgiveness, but healing—from sin, shame, guilt, and separation from God.
