The Trinity in Redemption
The Son's Accomplishment
Salvation Achieved by the Son
Description
The Son executes the Father's redemptive plan through His incarnation, life, death, and resurrection. He accomplished what no creature could—perfect obedience to God's law and substitutionary satisfaction of God's justice. The Son did not merely make salvation possible; He actually saved His people from their sins. His cry 'It is finished' declared the completion of redemption's work. All that the Father required, the Son provided; all that justice demanded, the Son paid. The atonement is not merely an offer extended but a purchase accomplished, securing every blessing for those the Father gave to the Son.
