The Significance of the Suffering on the Cross

1. Being Flogged With A Scourge: Matthew 8:17, Psalm 129:3.
   Paying for sickness. This payment rendered sickness illegal in the life of a believer.

We are not the sick trying to be healed, we are the healed refusing to be sick.

1. The Crown Of Thorns: Genesis 3:17-18, 2 Corinthians 8:9
   Paying for Poverty. He took our place in poverty so we can take His place in wealth.

2. The Scarlet Robe: Romans 10:11
   Paying for shame.

3. Carrying The Cross:
   Jesus carrying the cross signifies an end to worry and heavy burdens. He carried the cross so we can have rest.

4. Being Nailed On The Cross: Colossians 2:14
   This took care of the law & paved way for grace.

5. Having His Feet Pierced:
   This destroyed the authority of Satan. The day Jesus became your Lord, Satan became your servant. Col 2 vs 15.

6. Crucified On A Tree
   Paid for all curses. When you think about a curse, see yourself far from it, because Christ has redeemed you from all curses.

curse is he that hangeth on a tree

When you think of the Devil, think of him as defeated.

When Jesus died, He tore the veil and gave us unlimited access to the Father.
