How do we know Jesus finished the work of salvation?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus declared His work of salvation complete by stating, 'It is finished' on the cross, confirming the fulfillment of God's decree.

This certainty of Jesus completing the work of salvation is emphasized in the text, specifically in John 17:4 where He states, 'I have finished the work which You gave Me to do.' The grammatical tense reflects a completed action, which underscores the perfection of His sacrifice for sin. Throughout His ministry, He consistently pointed to the impending completion of His redemptive work, culminating in His final words on the cross, 'It is finished' (John 19:30). This declaration confirms that all that was necessary for salvation was accomplished, fulfilling scripture and securing eternal redemption for His people. The work was thorough and left nothing for us to add.
