"When Jesus therefore had received the sour wine, He said, 'It is finished!'
And He bowed His head, and gave up His spirit." John 19:30

What is finished? The work the Father gave His Son to do.
"I glorified Thee on the earth, having accomplished the work which Thou hast given Me to do." John 17:4

Jesus gave up His spirit.
"But when they (the soldiers) came to Jesus and saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs. But one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out." John 19:33-34

"And after these things Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but a secret one, for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus; and Pilate granted permission. He came therefore and took away His body." John 19:38

                    THE CROSS IS EMPTY!

"And Nicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by night, also came, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds Then they took the body of Jesus, and bound it in strips of linen with the spices, as the custom of the Jew is to bury. Now in the place where He was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had yet been laid. So there they laid Jesus..." John 19:39-42

"Now on the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they and certain other women with them, came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared. But they found the stone rolled away from the tomb. Then they went in and did not find the body of the Lord Jesus." Luke 24:1-3 (Vs. 10 gives the name of some of the women.)

                    THE TOMB IS EMPTY!

"And it happened, as they were greatly perplexed about this, that behold, two men stood by them in shining garments. Then, as they were afraid and bowed their faces to the earth, they said to them, 'Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here, but is risen!..." Luke 24:4-6

                    HE IS RISEN!

It is the empty cross, the empty tomb and Christ Jesus risen that we have salvation, "Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved." Acts 4:12

So like the Apostle Paul we, Believers, say, "I have been crucified with Christ, it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me." Galatians 2:20

Thank you Lord God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, for this gift of life we have in Christ Jesus our Lord! Oh the awesomeness of Your love! We worship You! Amen
