“It is finished.” These are some of the most powerful words of Jesus on the Cross. These are the last words He spoke before He died. What was finished? We are not sure, and it could be any of several things that were finished by Jesus at this point. His work was finished. The payment of sin was finished. What is clear is that Christ did finish the work of salvation. Salvation is all in Christ and there is nothing we can add to it or have to do to make it so. It is finished.
