 Jesus last words before he died. Believe it or not all of human history was leading up until this very moment from Adam in the garden of Eden when he rebelled against God to Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane when he was betrayed. It was leading up to this very moment. It was all part of the plan. Throughout Israelite history, God's people had been practicing animal sacrifice for the atonement of their sins. Waiting one day for a Messiah, someone who had bridged the gap between them and God to make them right with God, not just once but forever. Now to Jesus words. It is finished. Man's striving to make their way to God on their own merits finished. Jesus bridged the gap that we could be made right with God. Though these may have been Jesus last words before he died, they were not his last words. You see Jesus, he arose again. He defeated sin and death. He completed his mission and today he's calling you to surrender your life to him in repentance and faith.
