For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. (1 Cor 1:18 KJV)
We preach the cross, a symbol of death so that we might live. Those who love their lives in this world though, steer clear of the cross. They are unable to understand that it is only by the sacrifice our dear lord Jesus made for us on that cross that we have been freed from the power of death. We have been freed from the power that the world, that evil, that sin had over us.
Those who consider the cross as a symbol of foolishness will perish. It is wisdom to preach the cross and to cling to it for in the cross of Christ we have eternal life in the presence of Almighty God.
God's Peace - Pr. J.
