There is no morality to be had if you start from this point. Just evasion. Perhaps you can be forgiven, perhaps someone else can suffer in your stead, but nothing has been taken away, you're still filthy. Hell, probably filthier for even hoping that sacrificing another would somehow wash you clean.
I accepted the forgiveness. We do not deserve it and i would say some don't even want it(they believe they have done nothing wrong or have never sinned). I don't hope that he sacrificed for me, it already happened and i accept it. I am still filthy, i think we all still are, his forgiveness doesn't change that about us, it changes that about him.
