It Is Finished
As I look at Sunday morning church goers I am overwhelmed with sorrow. Too often Christians are under the conception that God owes them something. Therefore our worship services are filled with programs and performances that don't glorify God. The average Christian is wounded and hurt, waiting for God to "show up". Well as far as God is concerned God has already showed up. He sent His son Jesus Christ to pay for the sins of the world. Jesus defeated death, hell and the grave. Jesus removed the curses of poverty, sickness and disease. Genesis tells us that on the seventh day God rested. The Gospels tell us that Jesus declared on the cross "It is finished". Finally in Matthew 28 Jesus declares that "All Power" was given to Him, and He tells believers to go in his delegated power applying His teachings to their lives, also to teach others and to baptize in His name and He promises that He will be with us forever. In other words Jesus is telling all Christians, He has given us everything we need to KEEP IT MOVIN! So believer GET UP, Get into the word and Get Going about the Fathers Business!
