Jesus was the Messiah, the King of Israel, who came to set right all that our sin made wrong. He came proclaiming the kingdom, embodying it in himself.<\/p>\n<p>And so when he went to the cross, it was to establish the kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven. His kingdom mission didn\u2019t end at the cross. In fact, at the cross he was reigning as a king. He was showing that he\u2019s a king who reigns with love. He rules with mercy and with grace.<\/p>\n<div class=\"product-placement list-item clear\">\n<div class=\"product-placement-image\">\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crossway.org\/books\/the-atonement-tpb\/\"><\/p>\n<p>        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.crossway.org\/studio-files\/media\/bdd76d7d57d6394e24d1d74f49360dd921eb0b77.jpg\" alt=\"The Atonement\"\/><\/p>\n<p>    <\/a>\n  <\/div>\n<div class=\"post-excerpt\">\n<h3>\n          <em><\/p>\n<p>    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crossway.org\/authors\/jeremy-treat\/\">Jeremy Treat<\/a><\/p>\n<p>          <\/em><br \/>\n        <\/h3>\n<p class=\"copy-excerpt\">In this addition to the Short Studies in Systematic Theology series, pastor Jeremy Treat gives a foundational understanding of what Scripture teaches and what the church confesses about the doctrine of atonement.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>So Jesus accomplishes bringing the kingdom of God through self-giving love on the cross. Now, within that story, we can start to recognize that the achievements of the cross are unending. Yes, he accomplished the forgiveness of our sins, but there\u2019s so much more than that. It\u2019s victory over the enemy. It\u2019s the cleansing of our shame. It\u2019s the glorification of the Father. He accomplished bringing us out of exile and bringing us home with the Lord. He accomplishes so much more than we could ever imagine.<\/p>\n<p>And so often what happens is people reduce it to one thing here or one thing there. We forget that we\u2019re adopted into the family of God. We\u2019ve been given immortality in Christ. We\u2019re participating in God\u2019s nature.<\/p>\n<p>We miss the fullness of what Christ has accomplished. And so what I hope people see with the cross is that it\u2019s a multidimensional accomplishment, and we shouldn\u2019t reduce the gospel to one fraction of what Christ accomplished, but embrace the fullness of it.<\/p>\n<p>I like to think of the accomplishment of Christ on the cross like an orchestra. There are many different instruments that all play a particular part in a role, and yet they work together to make a beautiful song. And in this case, it\u2019s proclaiming this chorus that Christ died for our sins.<\/p>\n<p><em>Jeremy Treat is the author of<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crossway.org\/books\/the-atonement-tpb\/\">The Atonement: An Introduction<\/a>.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"clear\"\/>\n<div class=\"blog-post-author clear\">\n<p>          <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"left\" src=\"https:\/\/static.crossway.org\/authors\/small\/3480.jpg\" alt=\"Jeremy Treat\"\/><\/p>\n<div class=\"author-bio\">\n<p><strong>Jeremy Treat<\/strong> (PhD, Wheaton College) is a pastor for preaching and vision at Reality LA, a church in Los Angeles, California.
