Christ died for us…we put Him there on that cross. Through the cross and only through the cross are we able to receive salvation from the punishment we so greatly deserve. Only the Cross epitomizes the truth that only through what Jesus did on the cross can we go to our Heavenly Father free of sin. Redemption, acceptance and salvation are all available to us because of the cross.
Of all the symbols in this world, God used a cross to be the perfect representation of His love for us. Specifically, the cross His only Son died on. He expects us to boast in that identification alone. And why shouldn’t He? For it’s in that cross, and that cross alone, that we find entrance to life eternal with Him.
“But may it never be that I should boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world” (Galatians 6:14).
Only the cross. Now and forever, only the cross.
