Description

The Irreversible Work of Jesus

You know the first half of the cross: Jesus died for your sins. That's powerful—but it's only part of the story. The other half, the part many never hear, is just as life-changing: You died with Jesus. Permanently. Irrevocably.

That reality rewires everything. You're no longer relying on your performance or behavior to stay right with God. Your life is anchored in what He has already done, not in what you do.

In this message, we dive into the New Covenant—the one you could spend years in church missing completely—and celebrate how Jesus perfectly, irreversibly accomplished it all: Once-for-all forgiveness, perfect union with Him, and a new nature that makes you hate sin.

Watch the full message now and see how the cross changes far more than you think!

Discussion Questions:

  1. In your own words, what is the new covenant? How is it different from the old?
  2. What are the two unchangeable things? Why is this important to understand?
  3. React to this statement: Jesus shed His blood once, so you were forgiven by God once.
  4. What does once-for-all forgiveness mean for you at the final judgment?
  5. React to this statement: I'm allergic to sin and addicted to Jesus.
  6. Why does the true definition of "eternal life" (no beginning or end) matter so much?
  7. React to this statement: Behavior passages are like God showing us what clothes fit us best!
