When Jesus died, the temple veil was torn in two. Why does that matter?
Because the torn veil showed that Christ opened the way for sinners to come to God. What had once been closed under the Old Covenant was opened through Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross.
In this sermon, I explain what the veil represented, why access to God was restricted in the Old Testament, and what Luke 23:45 teaches us about the gospel.

Friends in the PNW, the LaPierres are returning to the Christian Renewal Center in Silverton, OR. I'm the speaker for their summer family camp, July 13-18, 2026. Check out the link for all the details. Would love to have you join us: https://www.christianrenewalcenter.org/summer-camp-week-2
In Luke 23:44–49, the crucifixion is surrounded by unmistakable signs—darkness over the land and the sun’s light failing. These miracles at Jesus’ death function as God’s testimony at the cross, pressing the reality of sin, judgment, and mercy on every observer.
