Finished

As I was cleaning at The Bridge today, I kept noticing some things around our new building that are not quite finished. Our church is spectacular, but there are a few places that need some paint, some trim, etc. The upstairs bathrooms are not complete, and on and on. This is not a criticism; we will never have everything done. It made me start thinking that anything put together by human hands just never quite gets perfectly done. There are always imperfections and just a little more refining to do.

I began to worship because Jesus completed His work on the cross of atoning for our sins. He completed His Bridge. When He said, "IT IS FINISHED," IT was finished. The act of remission of our rebellious sin was complete for those that He calls and respond by repenting and believing the Gospel. A perfect act by a perfect God. Praise Jesus!
