One theory of how exactly Jesus turns our sin into his virtue, and our self into his very person is as follows. Jesus (and now, the Ongoing Christ) accept rather than deflect or propagate another’s sin, and willfully turn it into virtue: greed is made detachment, irreverence is made reverence, anger is made patience. In doing this, Christ makes our sin into his very virtue…union with God.
