"It is finished!" John 19:30. What Christ is referring to here is the

accomplished salvation of the people. What that means is that when we are

saved, we do not have to put out burnt saccrifices up to Him. It is no

longer needed because Christ died for us, which took away the iniquities of

our sin. He did this out of great love for us. This is exemplified in

John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotton son

detail.

The suffering in which Jesus took for us lasted all through the night,

and then in the morning the thrusted a sword into His side to see if he was

alive. After the water poored out of His side, you can say that it is

officially over. In my heart it is not completely over, just that of that

era. Jesus will always live in my heart and not until the very end times

is it over in my heart.

When the life of Jesus was over, at the same exact time God tore the
