Christ: VICTORY!!
"It is finished!" John 19:30. What Christ is referring to here is the

this out of great love for us. This is exemplified in John 3:16 "For God so
loved the world that he gave his only begotton son that who so ever belief in
him shall have eternall life!". That verse is very important to us, or should be,

least that we could do. In Genesis 3:15 it says that we will be punished for our
sins. Yes, that is true, but God will forgive and forget them if we repent. You

says that Christ died for all of us.......
