RESTORED Lesson Summary

RESTORED - Week 2 - What else died on Jesus' cross? (It wasn't just Jesus!)

Summary

The cross is explained as more than Jesus dying physically; the believer's old life and debt of sin were also dealt with there.
Jesus carried grief, sorrow, transgression, guilt, shame, and punishment so believers do not have to keep carrying them.
The believer is invited to reckon the old self dead and to live from union with Christ instead of bondage to the past.
The lesson emphasizes that sin's legal claim has been canceled, not merely postponed.
Freedom is received by faith and then practiced by agreeing with what God says happened through Christ.
The cross becomes the place where shame loses authority and a restored life begins.
