The cross is empty and so is the tomb. So, where is He now?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said,\u00a0It is finished:<\/mark>\u00a0and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost. <\/em>John 19:30<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;<\/em> And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.<\/em> <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now where remission (forgiveness) of these (our sins and iniquities)\u00a0is, <\/em>there is\u00a0no more offering for sin.<\/em> <\/mark>Hebrews 10:16-18<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

…let the word of Christ dwell (take up its life) in you richly…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMan of Sorrows!\u201d what a name
For the Son of God, who came
Ruined sinners to reclaim.
Hallelujah! What a Savior!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bearing shame and scoffing rude,
In my place condemned He stood;
Sealed my pardon with His blood.
Hallelujah! What a Savior!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guilty, vile, and helpless we;
Spotless Lamb of God was He;
\u201cFull atonement!\u201d can it be?
Hallelujah! What a Savior!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lifted up was He to die;
\u201cIt is finished!\u201d was His cry;
Now in Heaven exalted high.
Hallelujah! What a Savior!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When He comes, our glorious King,
All His ransomed home to bring,
Then anew His song we\u2019ll sing:
Hallelujah! What a Savior!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
