It Is Finished, Part 2 (John 19:30)

Summary

The sermon emphasizes that when Jesus declared "It is finished" on the cross, He meant that He had completed the work God sent Him to do, not that He was defeated or done for. The preacher explains that salvation is entirely the work of Christ, accomplished by God's sovereign grace, and not dependent on human effort or decision. The message highlights the necessity of the new birth and God's drawing of sinners to Christ, using the example of the repentant thief on the cross to illustrate salvation by grace alone. Ultimately, Jesus' finished work secures eternal redemption for all His chosen people.
