When he had received the drink, Jesus said, 'It is finished'. With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit. John 19:30
Citizens of the New Kingdom know that King Jesus did not give up his spirit until his purpose for coming to earth was totally completed.
The angels announced at his birth that God's favor was being shown to mankind and the Prophet Isaiah wrote that at his death it pleased God to bruise him. This was King Jesus' purpose for coming to earth and he willingly submitted to it so that he could save sinful men and women.
When King Jesus said that it was finished, salvation began and became reality for mankind.
