The Message Of The Cross

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Jan 27, 2025

The cross is the central fact of the Gospel. But not all people are aware or accept that fact. And this has been true from the beginning. Our text in I Corinthians 1:18-25 describes the message of the cross, and two words stand out: Foolishness and Power.

Glory In The Cross

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 30, 2022

When it comes to salvation, can we boast about anything? The Apostle Paul chose to boast about just one thing, and it had nothing to do with himself.

The book of Galatians was written by the Apostle Paul to combat false teaching that the Galatian Christians had believed. Paul says to them, “who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth?” The Judaizers were the culprits, stating that circumcision was essential for salvation along with ...read more

Purity By The Cross Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Oct 5, 2022

How do we get pure? How can we relate to God? We find out in Hebrews 9:14. That purity comes by the cross. Nothing can compare to the power of Christ in cleaning up a life.

God is pure. He is like the snow on the top of the Himalayan mountains. We are un-pure. We are like the mud puddle on the road. You can’t mix the two together. The mud puddle water will contaminate the Himalayan snow. Then how do we get pure? How can we relate to God? We find out in Hebrews 9:14. ...read more

The Way Of The Cross

Contributed by Dawn Duryea on Mar 4, 2024

In today’s Gospel reading, Peter responds to Jesus’ announcement that the Messiah will have to suffer and die by denying the cross. Peter is in essence denying the truth of this teaching – that the Messiah must suffer and by extension, his disciples.

Last week we heard about Jesus being tempted in the wilderness right after his Baptism. That’s the way it feels sometimes – you just make a decision and then things happen that immediately bring your decision into question. This wilderness, of course, is metaphorical and now we find ourselves in ...read more
