It is Finished: What did Jesus accomplish on the Cross?

On the cross Jesus said it is finished. He was not referring to the end of His life. He did not say, "I am finished." He was referring to the task He came to accomplish. When I read the original meaning to that statement, I realised the great love Jesus have for humanity. The original meaning meant that many things required to be fulfilled were done for humanity.Jesus was absolutely focused on His mission to save all of humanity. The spiritual aspect of the whole mission was revealed. Jesus tried on many occasions to explain to His disciples on why He was to go to the cross and resurrect after three days. The spiritual aspect of the salvation process for humanity makes Jesus' statement significant and understandable. Jesus defeated Satan to give life back to humanity. This happened when He died on the cross at Calvary. He had to loose His life to give it to humanity as He explained with the sowing of seed. Jesus explained that the life is in the seed. Nothing happens when the seed is not planted. Once planted, the seed 'dies' to release the life inside the shell. He died to release His life for us as eternal gift. Jesus accomplished all that was required to pay for the sins of Adam. It was paid once and for all.
