Why is the Garden of Calvary important for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

The Garden of Calvary is pivotal because it represents Christ's atoning sacrifice, achieving eternal redemption for His people.

At Calvary, Jesus fulfilled the law's requirements through His sacrificial death, taking upon Himself the sins of His people. Colossians 2:14 tells us that He 'nailed it to the cross,' signifying that all debts and offenses were fully dealt with in His death. This was not merely a potential offering but an actual atonement that secured salvation for those chosen by God before the foundation of the world. Hebrews 9:12 emphasizes that Christ entered the holy place once for all, obtaining eternal redemption for us. Therefore, the Garden of Calvary stands as the focal point of God's redemptive plan, where sin was dealt with completely and believers were reconciled to God.
