God Quote-The Cross
JOHN SHIRK – In the Year of God’s Word, this is what the LORD says in John 12:32.
“And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”
The Apostle John explained why Jesus said this-to show the kind of death he was going to die.
Jesus would take a humiliating form of execution such as the cross to redeem people lost in sin, to draw us to Himself, and bring glory to His name. That is the wisdom of the cross to provide forgiveness and salvation to anyone who puts their faith in Jesus as Savior and Lord.
First Corinthians 1:18 says, “The message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.”
John 12:32-That’s today’s God Quote for us to embrace for life.
