The Cross


Our faith should accept the Bible as absolute truth. It starts from the beginning.


Gen 1:1  In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. 


The devil thought he had taken care of Jesus by  death on  that cross, but God used this as an acceptable sacrifice for all our sins.  


1Co 1:18  For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 

1Co 1:19  For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the discernment of the discerning I will thwart.” 

1Co 1:20  Where is the one who is wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? 

1Co 1:21  For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we preach to save those who believe. 

1Co 1:22  For Jews demand signs and Greeks seek wisdom, 

1Co 1:23  but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles, 

1Co 1:24  but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. 

1Co 1:25  For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men. 


No contest, you believe in the truth of the cross or you believe the lies of the world. By faith in Jesus you overcome the world and it's sins. The wise in God choose life in Jesus who is risen from death to eternal life. Call to God now and be saved by faith in the finished work of Jesus.
