“Our Cross”

April 20, 2019
"Therefore when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished!” And He bowed His head and gave up His spirit. - JOHN 19:30

Because He died, we can live. Because He obeyed, we can be forgiven. Because He was condemned, we can be saved. Following Jesus is not about better, faster, stronger, higher. It is about recognizing our helplessness, admitting our guilt, and receiving His sacrifice on our behalf. Everything depends on the crucifixion and resurrection. Everything. That means nothing is left to depend on us. Grace is something we receive, not something we earn.
