Isaiah 43

Isaiah 43:4
"Since you are precious in My sight,
Since you are honored and I love you,
I will give other men in your place and other people in exchange for your life.
Today, Christians often talk about how Jesus was the ransom for our sins.  He paid the price, so we would not have to.  But is there more to it than that?

Today, do others still pay the price, suffer the consequences of our sins, so that we do not have to?  Are Christians sometimes shielded, and others hurt, because God is protecting us?  Or was this a promise to the Jews alone, that does not stretch to Christians?
