    Why The Cross?

    Contributed by Johnny Small on Aug 30, 2002
    based on 137 ratings

    Why did Christ suffer and die on an old wooden cross?

    Why the Cross? The cross is at the center of all Christianity. It was while our Lord Jesus Christ hung on the cross that our sins were forgiven. This wasn’t an easy task for Him, but He did it willingly, because He loves us and it was the will of His father. The Lamb of God, ...read more

    She was perched on the couch. “Catch me, daddy!” She leaped into my arms. Man, was I scared. My daughter demonstrated faith and trust in me as her dad. She just knew I would catch her.

    When called to go, Abraham obeyed and went. As God calls us into his glorious kingdom, he invites us to a life full of challenge, surprise and adventure!

    I have to be honest with you… when I was a kid I had a really wrong-headed idea of what the Christian faith was all about. I thought that being a Christian meant giving up a life of fun & excitement in order to come, sit on a pew and be a good boy. • I’m not sure where that notion came from… maybe ...read more

     | 8,261 views

    The great apostle Paul refused to glory in anything other than the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. The cross itself was not glorious, but the work of the cross accomplished by our Lord Jesus Christ is where Paul gave glory.

    GLORIOUS CROSS OF CHRIST Galatians 6:14 A. What is the most glorious thing in all the world to you? 1. One would say, “It would be glorious to have plenty of money.” Another, “It would be glorious too have political power.” Someone else, “It would be glorious to have a ...read more

    "Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, so that Your Son may also glorify You." When God commands his glory to overshadow our church, our mouths will be full of praise and our lips with thanksgiving forever.

     | 1,591 views

    The power of the cross is so great that we've chosen to make this cross the emblem. We look at that cross and we don't just think about death, we think about life.

    I think there's something inside of all of our hearts that loves superheroes. I think that as I was growing up, I really liked the Old Testament Bible stories of Samson, David, Moses, and Joshua. Those are great stories. I can imagine the Jewish young men growing up, the disciples themselves ...read more

    the cross is not just a symbol we look to or place our faith in. It’s not just what Jesus did for us. It is what Jesus invites us to. It is a way of life for those following Jesus.

    The Call to the Cross Mark 8:34-38 The Cross. What comes to mind when you hear that word? A decorative altar ornament? Something that rests on top of a church steeple? A piece of jewelry hanging around the neck? Mention the word "cross" to the people of Jesus' day and a very different image came ...read more
