Not Getting Over the Cross

Not Getting Over the Cross

I just can't get over the cross. The cross speaks of the sacrificial and substitutionary death of Jesus. The place of judgment and salvation offered in the life and shed blood of the Lamb of God. It's speaks of love and grace, mercy and wrath, reconciliation and redemption, judgment and justice, righteousness and forgiveness and much more that we believers will spend an eternity learning the depths of its work in our lives. But here are are few more things about its message:

*this message goes back nearly 20 years ago while I pastored Mt. Horeb Baptsit Church in Meridian, MS. I recovered it from a cassette tape. Forgive the sound quality... I think the content will encourage and equip those it's intended for.

It Reaches the wretched—Mat15:18

It Rescues the perishing—John3:15

It Reconciles the enemy—Col.1:21

It Redeems the slave—1Cor6:20

It Regenerates the sinner—Titus 3:5

It Reveals the heart—Luke 2

It Rejoices the saints—Gal 6:14

It Repulses the world—1Cor1:18

It Renews the servant—1Cor1:18

It Reminds the church—Romans 1:16

Yes... regardless of your mockery and rebellion toward heaven's King, and His offering, He paid your debt, is willing to forgive and make peace with you, when you simply trust Him with your life and sin. What a sacrifice... yes, a sacrifice the Father made for Himself. What a gift... no doubt, an irreplaceable gift of grace that He offers to sinners. To Him be the praise...for He is worthy of all of you—and all of me—and all of us.

Blessings friends...may you ponder the cross of God and the Christ who made the message of the cross what it is, and may it be your plea of pardon and promise of victory over life, s
