     | 1,565 views

    Just think, the cross was a place of execution. It was therefore considered a place of defeat---the final word for the executed and a warning from those who did the executing.

    Some people find the cross … sometimes the cross finds you. Simon of Cyrene had a divine appointment with God that day … and sometimes God makes divine appointments with us. Like Simon, these may involve tasks we would prefer not to do, but these often lead to some of life’s greatest blessings.

    Jesus says we can do the works that He did. So why aren’t more Christians doing them? This message identifies nine reasons why the body of Christ, in general, is not doing the works of Jesus.

    Jesus’ Reality, My Reality For the most part, the Church, the body of Christ, doesn’t understand who it is as it relates to being part of God’s family. Please turn to 1 John 3.
