The Messages Of The Three Crosses On Calvary

Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Jun 19, 2001

Each cross on calvary carries a message: we see a cross of redemption, a cross of rejection, and a cross of repentance.

Picture in your mind one of the drawings or paintings that you have seen portraying Christ’s crucifixion. If the artist based his or her rendering of Calvary on the Bible’s account you probably saw three crosses in the picture. Although there were three crosses I am assuming one was probably more ...read more

Jesus' Midrash: Materialism And God's Provision

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Oct 26, 2009

From God’s provision during Israel’s 40 year wilderness wandering experience, the Jews in Moses’ time could learn some valuable lessons, the Jews in Jesus’ time could learn some valuable lessons, and so can Christians of all times.

Jesus’ Midrash: Materialism and God’s Provision (Deuteronomy 8:3-18, Matthew 6:24-34) 1. "In contradistinction to literal interpretation, subsequently called "peshaṭ" (comp. Geiger’s "Wiss. Zeit.

God Approved Sufferings

Contributed by Jedidiah Jedidiah on Aug 19, 2025

Grace Versus Works - Saved By The Faith Of Jesus

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Aug 20, 2025

In the Bible, Jesus is often referred to as God's "free gift" (Romans 5:15 NIV). A person is free to reject that gift just as they are free to reject the offer of friendship and love from another.

Works-based Christianity is similar to the principle of Karma, which is the "law of the deed," a centuries-old worldwide belief that if you do good things, good will come back to you, and if you do bad things, bad will come back to you. It is believed that suffering is a result of a ...read more
