Why Be Amazed at Jesus? Five OT Images at the Cross (John 19.31-37)
from "The Gospel for Living," with John Musgrave, M.Div. · host Christ Church
In John 19:30, Jesus declares, “It is finished.” But what exactly was finished? In this sermon, we explore five Old Testament images that God embedded into Israel’s Scriptures—each pointing to the Messiah—and how Jesus fulfilled every one of them on the cross as King.Discover why believers should be amazed and humbled as we see Jesus become:1️⃣ The Pierced King who bore humiliation for His people2️⃣ The Passover Lamb who saves from eternal death3️⃣ The Curse-Bearer who takes God’s judgment in our place4️⃣ The Temple Sacrifice whose blood secures our forgiveness5️⃣ The Living Water who cleanses and gives eternal lifeThis sermon is especially for Christians who want to understand the depth of Jesus’ work, including those from evangelical, Reformed, and Presbyterian traditions.If you want to see how Jesus completes the story God began in Genesis—and why His final words should astonish believers—this sermon will help you look at the cross with new wonder, worship, and confidence.Scripture: John 19:30Theme: Christ the King fulfilling ScriptureHere’s the video @ https://youtu.be/ZJwYqbOaFsgSee other resources and teaching @ https://www.christchurchclayton.org/teachingWatch other sermons in the Gospel of John series @ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLm8Dt3kxWQ8RVudN3VOk1teh6thzyAuJD#Jesus #John19 #ItIsFinished #GospelOfJohn #ReformedTheology #ChristianSermon #OldTestament #BibleTeaching #Presbyterian #ChristTheKing #JohnMusgrave #ChristChurchOfClaytonNC #TheGospelForLiving
