With Jesus' last breath on the cross he cried, 'It is finished!' This is not a whimper of defeat but a cry of triumph.
Jesus has accomplished the work his Father has given him to do. The cup of suffering has been drunk. The sins of the world have been forgiven. Humanity has been reconciled to God.
This sermon was preached on Good Friday, 2016, at Pakenham Lakeside Church.
May God bless you as you contemplate the death of our saviour and his resurrection.
