THE CROSS DOESN'T NEED YOUR HELP

Are You Trying to Help Jesus Finish the Cross?

THUMBNAIL HOOK IT IS FINISHED
OPENING HOOK
Every time you try to earn what Christ already purchased, you act as if the cross came with an unpaid balance.
CENTRAL DOCTRINE

The sufficiency and finality of Christ's atoning work.

TEACHING SPINE

Three movements.

  1. Christ's sacrifice is complete and sufficient.
  2. Repentance, obedience, and spiritual disciplines are responses to grace, not supplements to atonement.
  3. Performance religion quietly acts as if Jesus paid most of the debt and we must cover the remainder.
KEEP THE BALANCE

What this teaching must not distort.

Do not use "finished" to erase discipleship. The work of atonement is finished; the life of following Jesus continues.

LAND THE LINE
Obey Jesus because the cross is sufficient, not because the cross is insufficient.
Episode completion is saved on this device.
