The Perfect Death of Jesus Christ

The centrality and supremacy of the death of Jesus Christ should be the essence of faith for us.  It should be there when we stand, sit or sleep.  It should be there in every part of the day.  There is no escaping the divine reality of the divinely true and spiritually historic death of Jesus Christ!
Romans 5:17 NASB
For if by the transgression of the one, death reigned through the one, much more those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.
 
Or do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus have been baptized into His death? 
 
Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life. 
 
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans 8:2 NASB
For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.

2 Corinthians 11:23 NASB
Are they servants of Christ?—I speak as if insane—I more so; in far more labors, in far more imprisonments, beaten times without number, often in danger of death.

Philippians 2:30 NASB
because he came close to death for the work of Christ, risking his life to complete what was deficient in your service to me.

2 Timothy 1:10 NASB
but now has been revealed by the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus, who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel,

Revelation 20:6 NASB
Blessed and holy is the one who has a part in the first resurrection; over these the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with Him for a thousand years.
