The Work Is Complete

"Then Isaiah said, “Listen well, you royal family of David! Isn’t it enough to exhaust human patience? Must you exhaust the patience of my God as well? All right then, the Lord himself will give you the sign. Look! The virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a son and will call him Immanuel (which means ‘God is with us’)."

ISAIAH 7:13-14

Jesus Christ was born to this world to atone for the sin of mankind. He lived as a man - sinless - with God. He came to walk - to show that he was the prophet spoken in the word - and to suffer to pay for every sin of mankind as the perfect sacrifice. Man for mankind.

His love bore more pain than any man should bear, and his love conquered all the world. It is only in our risen Lord - Christ Jesus do we find salvation and forgiveness of sin. By no other means shall you enter the kingdom - very truly I tell you.

“The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon me, for the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to comfort the brokenhearted and to proclaim that captives will be released and prisoners will be freed.” Isaiah 61:1

“Early on Sunday morning, as the new day was dawning, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went out to visit the tomb. Suddenly there was a great earthquake! For an angel of the Lord came down from heaven, rolled aside the stone, and sat on it...Then the angel spoke to the women. “Don’t be afraid!” he said. “I know you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead, just as he said would happen. Come, see where his body was lying.” Matthew 28:1-2,5-6
