One word in Greek: “Tetelestai!”  Three words in English: “It is finished!”  The word spoken by Jesus from the cross of Calvary.  The cross-work of Jesus the Messiah had been completed…completely completed…and powerfully pronounced by the perfectly sinless Savior: PAID IN FULL!  Therefore…

     “My sin, oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!

     My sin, not in part but the whole

     Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more

     Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, o my soul!” ~ Horatio Spafford

 

1 John 1:7; 2:1-2 (NLT)

And the blood of Jesus, God’s Son, cleanses us from all sin…He is Jesus Messiah, the one who is truly righteous. He himself is the sacrifice that atones for our sins—and not only our sins but the sins of all the world.

 

“The promise of sins forgiven is all or nothing.” ~ Chuck Swindoll

 

The Lord bless you and keep you…
