Separated From Death. How Jesus Makes the Spiritually Dead Clean Before God (John 19.28–30)

"The Gospel for Living," with John Musgrave, M.Div.

About

Are you spiritually alive — or still separated from God by death?
In John 19:28–30, the Apostle John tells us that Jesus received the sour wine on a hyssop branch just before crying out, “It is finished.” That single detail opens a doorway into a powerful Old Testament image — the cleansing of what was unclean, including leprosy, mildew, and death itself.

In this message, Pastor John Musgrave explains how the hyssop at the cross reveals that Jesus’ blood doesn’t just forgive sin — it separates you from death.
Through faith in Christ, you are cleansed from spiritual death, made holy before God, and welcomed into His presence — now and forever.
