Ben Bonython shares from the 7th word from the Cross - Trust.

Pr Barry Silverback shares from the 6th word from the Cross - It is Finished.

Hebrews 5 says

During the days of Jesus’ life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with fervent cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission. Son though he was, he learned obedience from what he suffered and, once made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him

We can now begin where Jesus said it was finished. His finishing is our beginning. And now we learn also to obey not to produce anything through works, but to serve Him.

What tree do you sit under?

“But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you…” Jn 14:26
