Jesus' last words from the cross were, "It is finished." It sounds like the end. And while his death marked the end of his earthly ministry, Jesus' crucifixion was just the beginning. "It is accomplished," would be a better translation of Jesus' final words. The debt had been paid, the sacrifice completed, justice had been satisfied. And now life begins - restored, reconciled, redeemed. Give thanks to God this Good Friday for Jesus' victory over sin and death. We worship together this Friday, April 6 at 10:00 a.m.
