The cross started as a tool of terror but was transformed by Jesus into a symbol of God’s victory. Learn the history and meaning behind this powerful Christian symbol.

When Jesus cried ‘It is finished,’ He wasn’t giving up — He was declaring that sin’s debt was canceled, the law fulfilled, and death defeated. Those words still echo today: freedom is real, forgiveness is secure, and your acceptance before God is settled forever.

It wasn’t just His body that was crucified that day; it was also His heart, mind, and soul that were beaten, bloodied, and shredded.
