Col 2:14 … By cancelling the record of debt that stood against us with it’s legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross.
The real miracle of our lives was displayed by Christ more than two thousand years ago. At the cross, Christ did not sweep our sins under a carpet, he did not give us a short term relieve, he did not give us a cheap forgiveness, No! ” He gave us a forgiveness his own holy conscience feels good about, because the debt of our sins was paid, our wrong was righted ( Renewal Ministries – Leave it at the cross) .
Jesus died for all our sins ; our sins were washed. ” As far as the East is from the West, so far has he removed our transgressions from us (Psa 103:12) _. Nowhere else could the burdens of our sins be removed and buried in the sea of forgetfulness. He lingered at the cross on that fateful Friday until all was accomplished. At the end he declared , ” It is finished!_
There remains a cross where God dealt with our heaviest predicaments. At the cross, all our debts and their legal demands were cancelled . Those who linger around that cross are not only forgiven but are refreshed, renewed, regenerated, healed, our burdens rolled away, our souls are re – awakened and we receive a fresh new thrust to continue. His sacrifice on the cross provides countless benefits and victory for our remaining time on this earth!
