THE POWER OF THE CROSS

The power of the cross is a profound testament to God's love and redemption. We explore how this symbol of suffering and shame was transformed into one of hope and salvation through Christ's sacrifice. The crucifixion, once a tool of Roman execution, became the ultimate expression of God's mercy. We're reminded that Jesus chose this path, fulfilling ancient prophecies and taking our condemnation upon Himself. Just as Moses lifted the bronze serpent in the wilderness (Numbers 21), we're called to look upon Christ on the cross for our spiritual healing. This powerful imagery challenges us to shift our focus from our problems to the One who overcame them all. As we face life's trials, let's remember that our help comes from above, and that by looking to Jesus, we find strength, hope, and redemption.
