What does 'It is finished' mean for Christians today?

Answered in 2 sources

For Christians, 'It is finished' means that all the requirements for salvation have been fully met by Christ, assuring us of our free gift of grace.

The statement 'It is finished' holds immense significance for Christians today as it signifies the completion of the work of salvation. It assures believers that all that is required for redemption has been fully accomplished through Christ's sacrifice. This means that we are no longer bound by the law or its penalties, as Jesus has satisfied divine justice on our behalf. Therefore, Christians can live in the assurance of their salvation, free from the guilt and condemnation of sin, knowing that Jesus' work is not just sufficient but perfect and final. This truth empowers us to live by grace, fulfilling our calling in Christ without fear of condemnation.
