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).
