MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS

THESE 3 ENGLISH WORDS ARE ACTUALLY ONE GREEK WORD

TETELESTAI---IT IS FINISHED

--IT IS ACOMPLISHED

-- THE WORK IS DONE

IT`IS FINISH --THE SERVANT HAS FINISHED HIS WORK

THE PERFECT SACRIFICE HAS BEEN OFFERED

THESE 3 WORDS IS A GRAND PROCLAMATION

--OF COMPLETION AS WELL AS SUCCESS

IT IS FINISHED

--JESUS KNOWING THAT ALL THINGS WE`RE NOW ACCOMPLISHED

THAT THE SCRIPTURE MIGHT BE FULFILLED

--SAID I THRIST

HE KNEW WITHIN HIMSELF THAT HE HAD NOW FULFILLED ALL THAT

THE OLD TESTAMENT HAD

FORESHADOWED WITH REGARDS TO THE MESSIANIC WORK AND OFFICE

TO THE FRIST GLEAM OF HOPE IN GENESIS TO THE LAST WORD OF GRACE IN MALACHI

THE GREAT SUFFERING OF CHRIST BOTH PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL

HAS NOW BEEN COMPLETED--

AND SALVATION HAS BEEN FINALIZED THERES NOTHING MORE NEEDS TO BE DONE

BECAUSE CHIRST DID IT ALL AT CALVARY

AND THE REDEEM OF THE LORD IS COMPLETE IN HIM

Col. 2:10 (KJV) And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:

BUT NOT ONLY DID IT FINALIZED OUR SALVATION

BUT IT WAS A SHOUT OF VICTORY OVER THE DEVIL THEREFORE HE IS A DEFEATED FOE

Hebrews 2:14 (KJV) Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him

that had the power of death, that is, the devil;

NOT ONLY IS IT A SHOUT OF VICTORY

-BUT IT IS ALSO WAS A SHOUT OF A SERVANT WHO HAD COMPLETED HIS TASK

John 5:36 (KJV) But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that

the Father hath sent me.

AND THEN WHEN YOU GO TO THE

John 17:4 (KJV) I have glorified thee on the earth: I have

finished the work which thou gavest me to do.

Jesus affirmed that he had brought glory to the Father on earth by doing everything God wanted him to do.

The last phase of Jesus’ revealing work was about to be accomplished through his death on the cross.

Jesus spoke of his work as though it had already happened—

His obedience to death on the cross was a certainty.

Up Until this time, a complicated system of sacrifices had atoned for sins.

Because you do know that

Sin separates people from God,

and only through the sacrifice of an animal, a substitute, could people be forgiven and become clean before God.

. Jesus, however, became the final and ultimate sacrifice for sin.

The word finished is the same as “paid in full.”

Jesus came to finish God’s work of salvation to pay the full penalty for our sins.

With his death, the complex sacrificial system ended because

Jesus took all sin upon himself. Now we can freely approach God because of what Jesus did for us.
