About This Video The blood of our Savior Jesus Christ on the cross of Calvary brought us salvation. But have you ever pondered the profound meaning of the seven words He spoke during those terrible hours as He hung on the cross in agony? This video is based on the great work of renowned theologian A.W. Pink. Each word Jesus spoke on the cross was not a mere coincidence; each is a fulfillment of prophecy and an expression of God’s infinite grace, justice, love, and sovereignty. A.W. Pink explains in great detail how these seven words proclaim Christ’s forgiveness, the assurance of salvation, humanity, the mystery of His abandonment by the Father, and His complete victory. This is a sublime teaching that will make you savor the sacrifice of the cross even more deeply. "The words of the cross are not mere groans from a pit of death; they are the great triumphant cries proclaimed from the throne of the King of the universe." — A.W. Pink 🎧 Core Themes The Word of Forgiveness: "Father, forgive them..." - This first word Jesus uttered for his tormentors reveals his infinite mercy and intercession for mankind. The Word of Salvation: "Today you will be with me in paradise..." - This promise Jesus made to the thief on the cross confirms that salvation is by grace alone, not by works. The Word of Affection: "Woman, behold your son..." - The care Jesus showed for his physical mother even at the hour of death reveals the supreme love that he lived as a fully human being. The Word of Anguish: "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" - The great mystery of Jesus enduring the righteous wrath and abandonment of God the Father for us by bearing our sins. The Word of Suffering: "I thirst..." - This is evidence that the Bible prophecy was fulfilled and that he took upon himself our human weaknesses on the cross. The Word of Victory: "It is finished..." - The great proclamation that the plan of salvation, the demands of the law, and the power of sin had all been completely fulfilled and finished. The Word of Contentment: “Father, into your hands I commend my spirit…” - surrendering his life with complete trust in the Father, with complete authority over death. ✨ Key Insights The Accuracy of Prophecy: He later points out that every word Jesus spoke on the cross fulfilled the prophecies written in the Old Testament exactly. The Justice and Love of God: The cross is the meeting place of God’s pure justice and His infinite love. It is because of Jesus’ abandonment that we are accepted by God. Complete Salvation: The word “it is finished” gives believers great comfort that there is nothing left for us to do for our salvation, that Christ has done everything.
