Word Of The Week: The Cross
On the cross Jesus died for the world. He sacrificed Himself by hanging on it for the salvation of man. There He gave His life in exchange for ours. The lost and unsaved may not understand this. The Spiritually blind may not comprehend. The cross may seem to them as foolishness. The world may mock and ridicule the cross. Carnal mind does not understand the Spiritual. But to the saved and Spiritually minded, the cross is the power of God.
For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 1 Corinthians 1:18
The cross on which Jesus died is the power of God released to work in man. By His death on the cross we are saved from sin and death. Through the cross we are healed and delivered. Through the cross we are reconciled to God and become heirs of His Kingdom. At the cross Jesus took our place in death. His death on the cross not only gives us a new life in Him here on earth, but secures us eternal life with God after here. Therein lies the power of God- at the cross of Jesus.
God’s new and abundant life is received by believing in Jesus Christ and what He did on the cross. You are required to do nothing other than to believe. Believe and receive eternal life which money or earthly possessions cannot buy. It was purchased for you on the cross with the price of blood- the blood of Jesus. Look to the cross and live. Believe!
