Thanks - Jesus on the Cross Saves - Catholics are well aware - that is why we have the body on the cross in our churches and the stations

Jesus on the Cross suffers. Then He dies. Then He takes His shed blood to God the Father for remission of our sins. With our sins being paid in full, God the Father raises Jesus from the dead, and He ascends to Heaven to sit at the right hand of God. The empty tomb is the guarantee that our sins were paid in full by Christ’s finished work. It’s the empty tomb that gives us assurance that the suffering on the Cross was for us. Get Him off your Crosses. HE IS RISEN. He is not suffering anymore. He IS VICTORIOUS. NOT THE PERPETUAL VICTIM hanging on a cross.

I Corinthians15:14 And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.
