The Cross

John 3:16 famously tells us that God loves His world so much that He sent His Son Jesus to do what humanity cannot. He sent Him to live a sin free life and die a sacrificial death in the place of all who believe in Him. Here’s what the Bible has to say about Jesus, His life, His death and His resurrection.

  • Jesus is fully God and fully man.
  • Jesus has always existed alongside God the Father.
  • Everything in creation was made through Him and for Him.
  • Jesus felt compassion for sinners.
  • He suffered greatly and felt all the sorrows of living that we feel.
  • Jesus never sinned.
  • Jesus willingly died for us on the cross.
  • Jesus’ death completely satisfied God’s wrath against those who believe.
  • The Father transfers the credit and the reward for Jesus’ sin free life into the name of every believer.
  • The Father transferred the debt and the penalty of sin that each believer owes onto Jesus on the cross.
  • To prove He was satisfied completely with Jesus’ sacrifice, God the Father raised Him from the dead.
  • He will never die again!

After His resurrection, Jesus ascended to God’s side in Heaven. Before leaving, He told His disciples that He would come again for them.
