It is
finished (John 19:30, (NIV).
What three words could better express the work of Christ’s death
and resurrection? There is no more to be said. There is nothing we
can add to Christ’s sacrifice to gain God’s favor. Our
imperfection was proven by our inability to keep God’s magnificent
Law; thus, the mighty Gospel has come to make us worthy of being
called children of God! Let us live our lives as though we believe
that this work is finished, not trusting in our good deeds to make
us acceptable, but acting in obedience with joy because of our love
for the Lord. It is finished! We need only believe to live
forevermore! By Curtis D. Corzine |
