It is Finished...But it’s Not Over Pastor Dale Benson The Naz Church

What if the cross wasn't the end of the story, but actually the beginning of yours? In this powerful Easter message, we explore the profound difference between having our sins forgiven and actually living the abundant life Christ died to give us. When Jesus said "It is finished" (tetelestai), the sacrifice was complete—but His work in our lives was just getting started. Many of us settle for forgiveness when God is offering transformation. We're content with a cleaned-up past when He's inviting us into a radiant future. This episode unpacks: What "tetelestai" really means and why it changes everything Why Jesus didn't just die to forgive you—He died to fill you with resurrection life The powerful theme running through John's Gospel that most of us miss How to stop living in your grave and start running your race The difference between being saved and being truly alive Using vivid illustrations—from marathon runners who quit at mile 18 to the meaning behind the crosses draped in red, black, and white—this message challenges us to move beyond spiritual survival mode into the abundant life Jesus promised. If you've been carrying burdens of addiction, broken relationships, fear, or depression, this episode offers more than comfort—it offers resurrection power for right now, not just someday in heaven. Key Scripture: John 20; John 10:10
