Round 3: Christ's Victory On The Cross MATTHEW 27:32-54;
JOHN 19:16-37
Jesus' ultimate victory was achieved by his obedience to God and his death on the Cross at Calvary just outside Jerusalem in 33 AD.
Jesus' Apparent Defeat On The Cross=Victory Over Satan
The apparent failure of Jesus to defeat satan by dying on a Roman cross was demonstrated in reality to be his victory over sin, death and satan by his resurrection to life from the tomb three days later.
By his obedience to God's will, even to death on the Cross, Jesus reversed all the results of Adam and Eve's disobedience in the Garden of Eden.
In place of SIN, SUFFERING and SEPARATION from God, Jesus' death and resurrection brought the offer of FORGIVENESS of sins, HEALING and RESURRECTION LIFE. For more on this click on THE CROSS OF CHRIST REVERSES THE FALL OF MAN.
