The Cross -
Pastor J. C. O’Hair
The cross, truly a
mystery. Who was it that hung upon that cruel cross on golgotha nearly 2,000
years ago, and what was it that was accomplished?
Accomplished?
There were many crucified by the Romans before Jesus of Nazareth, and the only
thing those crucifixions accomplished was the brutal, torturous death of yet
another miserable sinner.
Well, it is a
mystery because this particular casualty not only did nothing to deserve such a
horrible execution, He had no sin whatsoever. He was made in the likeness of
sinful flesh, yet without sin (Romans 8:3 & Hebrews 4:15). He was truly
a spotless lamb. Indeed, He was THE one and only spotless Lamb.
At the cross of
Calvary, the grace of God far eclipsed the sin of man.
What does all of
this mean to us? The Bible says that all of us have sinned, and are continually
falling short of the glory of God. That's the bad news. The good news is that
God is declaring wrong people right because He is completely satisfied with
Christ's sacrificial death on the cross. This Godly righteousness becomes ours
through faith, and faith alone, the moment we accept Christ's death as our own.
Won't you accept Christ's death as your's right now?
"Believe on
the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be Saved. Acts 16:31
