determined submission

Jesus never submitted to the evil one during His suffering on the cross. At all times, and in all ways, His determined submission was to His Father's will. The same Holy Spirit that would soon raise Him from the dead was the same Presence that empowered Him to complete the work begun. It seemed Hell prevailed but little did it know; its devilish laughter would abruptly end through an eternal triumph that forever shouts. It. Is. Finished.
