The Cross Here are some facts concerning the cross that are good for our hearts’ meditation on another “first day of the week” (Acts 20:7). His willingness: “And He bearing His cross went forth” (John 19:17). His joy: “Jesus … who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross” (Hebrews 12:2). His obedience: “He … became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross” (Philippians 2:8). His blood: “Having made peace through the blood of His cross.” (Colossians 1:20). The consequence: “The preaching of the cross … is the power of God” (1 Corinthians 1:18). Our response: “God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ” (Galatians 6:14).
