Once in the End of the World –
IT IS FINISHED
Before the Lord was crucified, He told His disciples that NOW is the judgment of this world, and this was completely sealed in His three words: IT IS FINISHED. Although the world is under the judgment of God, the gospel of grace has continued from those three words, and grace through faith is freely available to all of mankind. The world can never be at peace with God until they surrender themselves to God which as Israel proved man will not do.
IT IS FINISHED sealed the judgment of this world. IT IS FINISHED eliminated the excuse of sinners to refuse God’s mercy. IT IS FINISHED exposed the real hatred of mankind against the Almighty God and condemned the world. IT IS FINISHED brought the end to the Temple in Jerusalem. IT IS FINISHED brought the end of the Roman Empire. IT IS FINISHED placed both Jew and Gentile under the judgment of God, and mankind would stand before God without excuse.
Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip. (Hebrews 2:1) For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompence of reward; (Hebrews 2:2) How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him; (Hebrews 2:3)
