Jesus Accomplished Salvation Completely - John 19: 30

It all happened 2000 years ago
Jesus Christ son of God incarnate
lived on earth the perfect life
showed the way to heaven's gate

God's will was to bruise His son
using various means with evil men
a roman cross was the ultimate means
planned from eternity God knew when

There Jesus paid the perfect sacrifice
for the sins of those he chose to select
the full weight of it was on Him
salvation's price was His to collect

But at Calvary's cross, Jesus Christ spoke
His very last words before He did die
bowing His head having completed His task
sinner's salvation accomplished the last cry

Jesus did then give up His spirit
it is finished rings out to all
the world is now forever changed
Satan's plan eternally forever to fall

Jesus accomplished salvation completely
the son of God is the saviour of grace
sin is vanquished to death's fall
so heaven awaits its chosen race

("When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, “It is finished,” and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.' John 19: 30 (ESV)")

When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them. Acts 2:1?-?4 NIV Beginning of new covenant come to be, but still this world rejects and tried to stop then
