Silly way to avoid the obvious answer. My Protestant FRiends say that the work of Christ was "finished" on the Cross... and yet we are still here. Why? Quite obviously, because the Cross was not the end, it was the beginning. See my post #44 for more on this.

Then why did Jesus say “It is finished” when He was on the cross and what was he referring to?

No.
We work for the Kingdom because we are Saved by Grace, not to earn Salvation.
When our bodies fail, we have the privilege to join God Almighty for Eternity.
