What did the apostle Paul mean when
he penned the following words?
“For I determined not to know anything among you
except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.”
(1 Corinthians 2:2)
Jesus said, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me” (Luke 9:23). Is it possible that the meaning of the cross goes well beyond a one-day event and is instead a daily lifestyle?
In addition to seeing “Jesus Christ and Him crucified” during that violent Passover two thousand years ago, can we see Him carrying His cross during the events of the Flood, Sodom and Gomorrah, the plagues of Egypt, the destruction of Jerusalem, the crusades during the Dark Ages, and that “He bore them and carried them all the days of old” (Isaiah 63:9)?
What about the current war between Israel and Hamas, the coming seven last plagues, and the fiery fate of the unbeliever? Are these events a result of God’s justice and pent-up anger against sinners, or fallen humanity’s continued desire to “crucify the Son of God again and again” (Hebrews 6:6)?
Come and see how the cross unlocks all the mysteries surrounding the violent events that have taken place throughout history, and how you and I have a role to play in relieving Jesus from His pain and suffering; for “by His wounds we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5).
