The Power Of The Cross

The cross of Jesus was much more than death, suffering and blood. It was here that God made His greatest declaration of love for lost humanity. It was here that Christ’s greatest work was accomplished.

When Jesus healed lepers, diseased-twisted bodies, and opened blind eyes He was helping one person at a time. But when He  died on the cruel cross, His sacrifice made a difference for whosoever would call upon His name by faith.

Romans 10:13  For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

What is the cross of Jesus to you?  Is it merely a piece of jewelry or a religious symbol? The cross represents the gospel of Christ --- His death, burial and resurrection.

I  thank God that I heard and believed the gospel because it’s the “power of God unto salvation”?

Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

Because of the cross God still saves souls, changes eternal destinies, and transforms sinners into saints of God.
