JESUS CHRIST PAID IT ALL!
1 Corinthians 15:1β4 (KJV), Ephesians 2:8β9 (KJV)
INTRODUCTION
In every dispensation, God reveals truth progressivelyβbut salvation has always been by grace.
In this present Dispensation of Grace, God is not asking men to work, repent of sins to be saved, or perform rituals.
He declares a finished work:
βIt is finished.β β John 19:30
Jesus Christ paid it allβfully, finally, and forever.
PROCLAIMED PAYMENT
Jesus Paid the Full Price for Sin
1 Corinthians 15:3
Substitution β Christ died for our sins
Sufficiency β No additional payment required
Satisfaction β God the Father accepted the sacrifice
Sinβs debt is paid in full, not partially covered.
PRECIOUS BLOOD
Redemption Is Through His Blood Alone
Ephesians 1:7
Purification β Blood cleanses completely
Purchase β We were bought, not borrowed
Pardon β Forgiveness is granted instantly
Not water, works, or wealthβthe blood alone saves.
PERFECT CROSS
The Cross Finished the Work
Colossians 2:14
Cancellation β Sin-debt nailed to the cross
Completion β Nothing left undone
Confidence β Believers rest in a finished work
Salvation is done, not being done.
PROVEN BURIAL
Christ Truly Died
Romans 6:4
Reality β Jesus did not faint or escape
Reliability β Burial proves death
Representation β We died with Him
A real death was required for real salvation.
POWERFUL RESURRECTION
Victory Was Declared on the Third Day
Romans 4:25
Justification β Resurrection proves acceptance
Validation β Christ is who He claimed to be
Victory β Death defeated forever
No resurrection, no salvationβbut He rose!
GRACIOUS GIFT
Salvation Is a Gift, Not a Goal
Ephesians 2:8β9
Gratis β Freely given
Grace-based β God does the saving
Guaranteed β No boasting allowed
If works enter in, grace exits.
GUARANTEED SECURITY
Eternal Life Is Eternal
Romans 6:23
Permanent β Never perish
Protected β Kept by Godβs power
Preserved β Not maintained by man
You donβt keep salvationβGod does.
PERSONAL BELIEF
Salvation Is Received by Faith Alone
Acts 16:31
Personal β Each must believe for himself
Present β Salvation is immediate
Positioned β Believers placed βin Christβ
Believe what He did, not promise what youβll do.
PRAISE TO CHRIST
Jesus Alone Gets the Glory
Galatians 6:14
Exaltation β Christ lifted high
Exclusion β No room for human merit
Eternity β Praise forever to the Lamb
Grace magnifies Christ, not man.
CALL TO ACTION
If you are trusting worksβSTOP.
If you are trusting ChristβREST.
If you are savedβREJOICE.
βBelieve on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved.β β Acts 16:31
CONCLUSION
Jesus did not help salvation.
He did not assist salvation.
He did not offer part of salvation.
He PAID IT ALL.
Past sins.
Present sins.
Future sins.
FINAL THOUGHTS
Grace is not earned
Faith is not a work
Salvation is complete
The cross is sufficient
The tomb is empty
Eternal life is secure
Boasting is excluded
Christ is exalted
God is glorified forever
