Be of good cheer for I have redeemed the world. Through faithfulness and suffering I offer My whole human life from the beginning even to the end as pattern of perfection and of wholeness. Through death I showed obedience to the Father and He sustained and vindicated Me and brought Me through the shades of death into the full glory of His Eternal Presence. And the power of My redemption is offered to each child of man who seeks it in truth and love and in self-giving. I am with each one from the beginning even to the end in their faithfulness and commitment.

And all faithfully committed in truth and in self-giving will learn to know the fellowship of suffering as they follow in My steps, pray with Me in Gethsemane and accompany Me to Golgotha. So will all opposition from the world which they encounter, as they seek to do the Father's will, be caught up in the cost and power and glory of My Eternal Victory.
