[Mar 29, 2026] His Crucifixion

When Jesus was on the cross, after all the humiliation, all the scourging, the nails in his hands, the nails in his feet, the crown of thorns on his head, the last thing he says is, it is finished. It's finished. That's what such a powerful statement from Jesus. It is finished. The power of the cross reversed the curse. He defeated through the cross, and this is the power of the cross, he defeated our enemies of sin, death, and the evil one through the cross, through his submission to death.

We find in the gospel there is no ladder to get to God, but our God came down to us and became one of us. Let's get on to some good news. The curse was lifted and reversed by the power of the cross. By the power of the cross. In the middle of time, the middle of history, God the Son left his heavenly home to become one of us, just like us with flesh and blood and walk this earth. And God had a plan from the beginning of time to reverse the curse and to redeem us. [00:16:36] (42 seconds)  #GodWithUs

Has anybody ever fulfilled all the commandments? There's only one. His name is Jesus. He answered the ifs of the old covenant. So the curse of the law was if you don't obey fully, then you're you're not gonna be blessed. If it's about me, I'm in trouble. And same with you. If this is about us doing enough, if we could get our ladder and climb to God, which is what people often think the law is, if I'm a good boy or a good girl and I do all this, then I can get to God.

In Matthew's gospel at the very end when Jesus gives the great commission, he says, all authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. All authority is his. He took back dominion for humanity. The original stewardship to be fruitful and multiply and take dominion of this earth. Jesus did that now as the new Adam. The first Adam fell. The true Adam, Jesus, he delivered. He's our Messiah. He's the Christ. [00:32:18] (32 seconds)  #GreatCommission

At the cross, stay with me, the son of God was bait for the evil one, for the power of darkness. Darkness thought on that day Jesus died on the cross that darkness had won. They thought they had won. Because from the beginning, from that prophecy in Genesis three fifteen, he will crush your head, you will bruise his heel. The evil one was looking for the Messiah. That that in Genesis three fifteen, we see the Messiah. And he they thought if we kill Jesus, the Messiah, we will win. [00:20:20] (42 seconds)  #VictoryOverDarkness

A lot going on there. When you think of the word curse in this context, God did not do the curse. It was a consequence from their disobedience. He told Adam, because you did this, cursed is the ground. It's your fault, Adam. It's not God doing the cursing. Because sometimes when we hear the word curse, we think of witchcraft and spells and casting curses. That's not what's going on here. This is the consequence that God told them, if you eat of the tree, this is what would happen. [00:12:39] (36 seconds)  #ConsequenceOfDisobedience

Then that word in Genesis three fifteen was the fulfilled word when they pierced my feet. He will crush your head. You will bruise his heel. Jesus' feet were nailed to the cross. And then Eve came from Adam's side. Right? Eve came from Adam's side. God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man. He slept, then he took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh at that place. What happened when Jesus was on the cross? The Roman soldier shoved a spear in his side and blood and water came out the side, atoning for Eve's deception coming from Adam's side.

He had had the right to come and open the deed, to open the scrolls because of what he did. He purchased us back, not with money or things, but by his very life, his blood, he purchased you and I back. If you wanna see a cool way it's laid out in the Old Testament, go read Jeremiah 32 and you'll see how Jeremiah did this law of redemption over a piece of land that God told him to. What a prophetic view of to what Jesus was gonna do for us. [00:31:40] (37 seconds)  #PurchasedByHisBlood
