    The Messages Of The Three Crosses On Calvary

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Jun 19, 2001
    based on 95 ratings
     | 39,766 views

    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

    Calvary was the place of Three Crosses - of Rebellion, of Repentance and of Redemption - and the choice is ours.

    The Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ is the corner stone of our faith. It is the chosen symbol of the Christian faith. Thank God, we see it now as an empty cross because the seeming tragedy for good and apparent victory for evil was overturned by the power and purposes of God into the triumph of the ...read more
