📖1 Peter 2:24

He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed

📍Meaning: When Christians place their faith in Christ, they become "dead" to sin in the same way that Jesus did when he died physically. Sin no longer has power over them.

As long as Christians are in this world, they will still struggle with their old fallen nature and commit sin, for which they should seek God's forgiveness in Christ. But that old nature no longer has the control over them that it did before their salvation by faith.

They can then instead (as Peter said) live for righteousness through the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit, because Jesus bore the full penalty for their sins in His body on the cross. The "stripes" (flogging) and all the other punishment that Jesus endured do not wound or harm those who put their faith in Him, but instead heal them by making them acceptable to God by that faith, and giving them eternal life.
