The Timeless

Sunday, July 2, 2023

Seven hundred years before Messiah came, Isaiah 53 declared, "He was wounded for our transgressions. He was bruised for our iniquities. By His stripes we're healed." Those words are written in past tense, as if it already happened. Why? In Hebrew you have two real tenses; perfect and imperfect. Past is used for the perfect. This means it's a finished thing. So we say, it's past, because it's complete. But it really means it's perfect. Messiah's perfect work of salvation, transcends time, it covers everything, it's finished. Your salvation is in the perfect tense because it's finished, from the start. So stop living in the imperfect as if you have to achieve it. Live from the finished perfect work of Calvary. Learn how to start from the end, how to grow in the completion and be filled in the fullness. Learn how to fight the fight that's already fought, to win the victory that's won. Pray the answered prayer, live the completed life, because your salvation is perfect, it's finished, even from the beginning. Start living from the finished work because what is finished is perfect.
