Why the
Cross?
So much of the teaching of the Bible points to the death of
the Lord Jesus. Neither His perfect life, marvellous teaching nor His powerful
miracles are the focus of the Bible’s message. Above all else, the Son of God
came into the world to die.
What
makes His death so important?
The answer is that He died as a substitute, a sin bearer and
a Saviour. All people are lost, guilty and helpless before God’s holy law.
How can
they escape God’s righteous wrath?
The Bible answer is this – “while we were yet sinners, Christ
died for us” . As an amazing rescue plan, God’s Son volunteered to take the
place of the guilty and bear the penalty of their sin.
He Lives
– a Saviour!
In raising Christ from the dead, God demonstrated that He accepted
the sacrifice of Jesus Christ in the place of sinners. Now all people may be
saved by repentance toward God, and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.
He will
become your Saviour if you receive Him.
