The Final WordJohn 19:30
No. 334When he had received the drink, Jesus said, "It is finished." With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.John 19:30
Tetelestai — a single Greek word that carried the weight of eternity. It's finished, it's paid in full, it's accomplished, it's complete. Every debt, every sin, every barrier between you and God — finished. Not "it's started" or "it's ongoing." Finished. Done. Complete.
Reflect
What are you still trying to add to what Christ said is finished? What would fully trusting "It is finished" change about your striving?
Prayer
Jesus, I trust the finished work. Nothing to add, nothing left unpaid. I rest in the completeness of what You accomplished. It is finished. Amen.
