Christ Is All - The Offensive Message Of The Cross

The message of the cross is the wake-up call for people to honestly evaluate themselves to acknowledge their brokenness in their sins and repent.

The conviction that the cross brings does not give us the warm fuzzies or tickle our ears, but is sobering as it cuts to the heart.

The message of the cross shows the seriousness of sin and its consequences.

The cross and what it represents serves as a reality check that sheds light on two eternal destinies that we freely choose.

The message of the cross defies human logic causing offense, and is considered foolish to those who have hardened hearts blinded by sin.

The message of the cross does not boost our self-image, affirm us in sin, or encourage pride, but is humbling.

The cross openly proclaims that we are sinful, and that our corrupt acts cost the precious life of the innocent Son of God, our Creator.

The cross compels us to admit that none of us are good enough, and that without Christ’ stepping into humanity to intervene, and suffering the penalty for us, there would be no hope for us.

The message of the cross implies a need of dying to self and surrender to fully embrace Jesus in order to live life to the fullest – a message that makes no sense to some.

A little about me: It took me decades to come to Christ after a life of sin and straight-up rebellion following a childhood devoid of love and filled with betrayal and abandonment. It took me forever to realize that there is only One who can fulfill us and satisfy. One who knows all our dirty laundry yet loves us more than anyone. There is only One who can help us overcome all that we have tried to over and over on our own, yet failed. Yes, He's that faithful good! We serve an awesome powerful God and He is at the door of our hearts knocking.
