How Powerful Was The Cross?

The cross wasn't just about creating the possibility of salvation—it was about securing it completely. When Jesus said "It is finished," he meant it. Salvation was objectively secured for all humanity at that moment. Think of it like someone paying off your debt without telling you. The debt is truly gone, but until you realize it, you'll keep making payments, living as if you're still in debt. Similarly, many people continue living under condemnation and separation simply because they haven't awakened to what Christ has already accomplished.
