“For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel—
not with words of human wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.” 1 Cor.1:17
Many men of God are convinced that they are rich
They say,’ I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do
not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are
wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked.Rev.3:17
Other religions will always try to destroy the Cross of Calvary
However, when we see that the enemy is trying to destroy
The Cross from within we can immediately see how desperate our enemy is
The crucifixion can never be destroyed
God had a plan and His plan worked—
Through the crucifixion, God has saved millions and millions
Jesus’ loyal followers believed that He died by crucifixion and
Most of them sacrificed their lives for the propagation of that message
Many today are still trying to destroy the crucifixion
Many in the past have also tried but Elohim cannot be destroyed
Jesus was sent to reunite us to our Heavenly Father
The Cross had to first happen and then we could Cross over and receive
The Authority of the Kingdom (King) to influence our territory
The Israelites had to Cross over; we also have to Cross over—
Jesus made it possible
Regretfully,
Christianity has become a man-centered,
Man-oriented gospel created by man for man
Jesus never preached on healing, prosperity, success,
Or any of the other things that center on man and his wellbeing
Jesus preached about the Kingdom, the King, and the King's purpose
He would die for His Father’s plan and He discovered that it was worth it
Jesus demonstrated healing and prosperity
As an expression of the will and purpose of God
When Jesus needed money to pay His taxes,
He understood that He had dominion over the Earth,
So He sent His disciple to get the money from the mouth of a fish
When we prosper, we can fund His Kingdom but men are selfish
And when we are healed we can comfort somebody else…
But men are selfish
The centrality of the Cross is the Glory of Christianity
In life, there can be loss but if you toss yourself upon your purpose in Christ Jesus
You will have fulfillment—
The Cross is the pivot of the dealing of God with the universe
Therefore, no man should decide to be a fool by ignoring the gift given by God
The Cross is the place of unity revealing purity for eternity
The crucifixion can never be destroyed
God had a plan and His plan worked—
Through the crucifixion, God has saved millions and millions
