Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God (Hebrews 12:2)
The things we learn as we look to Jesus on the cross is how to suffer pain, endure injustice and much more. Jesus is the author and finisher of our life saving faith because of what he accomplished at the cross. His work on the cross puts away our sins and transfuses us with his righteousness we only need to ask Him. There is no real salvation outside of Christ's work on the cross.
It was only for this Jesus endured the suffering and ignominy of the cross; the salvation of His people! After which Jesus rose from the dead and ascended into heaven. He sits there now, at the right hand of God, as the only intercessor and mediator of his people.
