The Cross: Our Challenge Before a Watching World 2

November 4, 2008
If you ask most Christians, "Do you want to be like Jesus?" they'd probably say "of course." Until they find out what it really means. Jesus renounced His privileges and humbled Himself to the point of permitting His own death. Unless we do the same, we will never reach the lost floating on a sea of moral relativity. Today: more about what it means to take the cross into the world.

When You’ve Been Wronged
Conflict in relationships is inevitable, but healing and reconciliation often is not. Time and again we've tried every option and failed, and all we are left with is a load of guilt and pain. Pastor Erwin Lutzer shows how the blessing the Lord gives to those who suffer unjustly is worth the pain involved. He also illustrates the need to leave our broken relationships in the hands of God and move forward in our lives toward freedom.

There's a basic problem in evangelism: the world thinks the cross we preach about is foolish, but to us, it's the power of God.

Buried deep in the purposes of God lies the answer to this question: why did the Father send His Son to the cross? As we run life's daily race, let's not forget that mercy is getting what you don't deserve. God was not obligated to save any of us, and yet He has. Today, we begin an awesome look at how far God went to provide redemption for a lost mankind.

Many people believe Jesus was a great teacher and a good example. But few really understand why He died on a cruel cross. These days, polling data is king. In the mainstream media, the truth seems to lie with the majority opinion. And so we're analyzing what people believe about the cross of Christ: the only means of eternal salvation. For some crucial insights, stay with us.

To many people the cross is a piece of jewelry, or what's atop a church steeple. Most people don't see it as it really is... the centerpiece of history and the core of God's redemptive agenda. In recent days on Running to Win we've been exploring God's view of the cross, but today we'll focus on man's viewpoint. As we'll soon see, the contrast is startling.

If something is important to God, it had better be important to us. And the one thing central in God's agenda is the cross. That cross was in God's mind from eternity past. Its benefits extend to eternity yet to be. It is history's great intersection: the place of God's greatest expression of love to fallen mankind. Today: more about "What God Thinks of the Cross."
