Gospel videos of the day: Jesus paid it all
by LauraLoo
In commemoration of the greatest event in human history, we celebrate the victory of Jesus Christ, God’s only begotten Son, for defeating Satan and saving all sinners who turn to and trust in Jesus’ finished work at the cross for full forgiveness of sins. And, being God, Jesus defeated death and rose from the dead – becoming the forerunner for all His children who likewise someday will also rise from the dead and be with Him for all eternity!
Different versions of the Gospel can be found here, here and here.

Matthew 6:12: “And forgive us our debts as we also forgive our debtors.”
The second to last utterance on the cross, no doubt in Aramaic but translated into the Greek by the Apostle John, was: “Tetelestai!” From bible.org:
Literally translated the word tetelestai means, “It is finished.” The word occurs in John 19:28 and 19:30 and these are the only two places in the New Testament where it occurs. In 19:28 it is translated, “After this, when Jesus knew that all things were now completed, in order that the scripture might be fulfilled, he said, ‘I thirst.’” Two verses later, he utters the word himself: “Then when he received the sour wine Jesus said, ‘It is finished,’ and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.”
The word tetelestai was also written on business documents or receipts in New Testament times to show indicating that a bill had been paid in full. The Greek-English lexicon by Moulton and Milligan says this:
“Receipts are often introduced by the phrase [sic] tetelestai, usually written in an abbreviated manner…” (p. 630). The connection between receipts and what Christ accomplished would have been quite clear to John’s Greek-speaking readership; it would be unmistakable that Jesus Christ had died to pay for their sins.
I accept!
Thank you Hans! Definitely the most important decision I made or will ever make. Have a great Resurrection Sunday! LL <3
Thanks LauraLoo and Jill for this. I am missing Holy Week services including having missed Palm Sunday because of a sinus infection. I enjoyed the song video and I will be watching my copy of Passion of The Christ tonight. God bless.
Thanks you Victor and have a blessed weekend. LL <3
Shoo!
Oh, nothing to worry about. That fly’s been swatted. ;)
LOL :D
Thanks LauraLoo it was a good weekend I finally made it to church, on Easter Sunday, and finally starting to feel a bit better. Hope you had a great weekend too.
