"Preaching the Cross!!!"

"The preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness." (1 Corinthians 1:18)

There are more religions today in the world than at any other time in all of history.  Yet religion never saved anyone from the fires of Hell.  Only Jesus Christ and His Blood can save us.  Few preachers or churches are true to God's Word anymore.  They have itching ears.  They want to be "politically correct."  Their desire is to be entertained rather than be enlightened with the inerrant Word of God.  Christ must remain our focus, and the preaching of the cross must forever be our message.  Lets never settle for the watered down theology of our day.  We will all give an account one day as to what we did or did not do with the message of "The Cross."  What we do with "The Cross of Jesus Christ" will determine where we will spend eternity.  Are we ready to meet "The Lord?"

Life Verse:  "For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ, and
                    Him crucified." (1Corinthians 2:2)

  1. I loved this one. Too many people don't like to hear about the cross because it is not pretty. No, it is not pretty. The death of Jesus for our sins was not pretty. It was cruel, but He did it because He loves us.
