Partakers Bible Thought 21 August 2021 – The Christian and the Cross of Jesus Christ

Partakers Bible Thought 21 August 2021

“For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." (Mark 10:45)

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His one and only Son that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life”. (John 3:16)

Even a cursory look at the media will tell you that the world is messed up. Is there any hope? Yes, indeed there is! That is why God sent Jesus. Jesus is the hope. Jesus came to serve rather than be served. That is why Jesus came to give His life, so humanity may have a hope. God made the world perfect and humanity was in a harmonious relationship with God. Humanity messed it up and broke the relationship bonds with God. When the time was right, God became human, in order to bring humanity back into relationship with Himself.

That man was Jesus Christ and it was His death on a Roman cross nearly 2,000 years ago which was the gracious act of a generous God reaching out to the world that he loves. Without Jesus’ death on the cross there would be no hope for the world. That He died is without doubt, but why did He have to die? What gain do we have as His Disciples?

What does the Cross of Jesus Christ reveal to us about God’s character and the solution to humanity’s biggest problem? Come and explore what the Bible has to say about the cross of Jesus Christ, by downloading and listening to the podcast!
