John 19:30

'It is finished' — tetelestai in Greek — means 'paid in full.' The debt of sin is completely paid. Nothing more needs to be added. Jesus finished the work.

Memory phrase: It is finished.

Talk about it: What did Jesus mean when He said 'It is finished'?

Prayer: Lord Jesus, You finished the work. Thank You.
