It is finished

Dear listener. Dear listener. Open your heart for the Word of the living God as you're listening to this message and realm is blessed. Because we read in the Bible that Jesus Christ, as He hangs to the roughly wooden cross at Golgotha and spoke these beautiful words: "It is finished! What is finished? It! IT is finished.
We can read in Isaiah 53:4 what the word "it" means : "Surely He has borne our grieves (sicknesses, weaknesses and distresses) and carried our sorrows and pains." And in verse 5: "But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our guilt and iniquities; the chastisement peace and well-being for us was upon Him, and with the stripes that wounded Him we are healed and made whole."

Yes, Jesus has taken away our diseases, carried our sorrows and sins and because of this He was transpierced with thick nails on that cross. This means: all our sicknesses, all our sorrows, our grieves and all our offences, all our iniquities. What happened with all of this?

Jesus said: "It IS finished." It IS. What does the word IS means?" It means: that it isn't accomplished. It does not mean also that it must be accomplished once. No, it IS finished. Jesus has taken all our diseases and all our distress and all our offences to the cross. Jesus has paid the price so we can live in eternity. Jesus has paid the price for receiving forgiveness, healing and consolation. He has paid this with His own life and with His precious blood. Jezus Said:"It is finished!" And finished means: it is done." The price is paid. You can add nothing more. Nothing! You can't come into heaven with your money. Nor with a pious face. Nor through religion. Because religion means: work hard to become eternal living. To do as much as possible. But it is finished. The price has already paid. The only thing that people on this earth have to do is: to believe in Jesus Christ en what He has done at Golgotha. And to accept Him in our lives.
Belief in Jesus Christ, Accept Him into your life, because "it is done."
I wish you Gods powerful blessings in the miraculous name of Jesus. Amen!
