Pastor Biakson took to the pulpit and delivered his Sermon on the topic ‘THE POWER OF THE CROSS’ based on the Scripture portions from 1Kor 1:18-22, Rom 3:21-26, 5:9, Gal 3:13, Phil 2:6-11. The Pastor began his preaching with God’s love and the Power of the Cross. He also sang ‘Etlawm Kalvari Cross’ which strongly support today’s sermon.
The world is broadly divided into two with the coming of Jesus Christ. The Power of the Cross is God’s work and not of human’s. Man cannot do anything to earn or receive the power of the Cross. It is God’s abundant Grace. The atonement for our sin is a free gift from the Lord. As Christ died on the Cross for our sins Cross becomes the altar of our salvation. So believers highly regarded the Cross and it becomes a symbol of God’s love.
Jesus Christ declared on the Cross that the debt of our sins is paid. Hence Jesus Christ is our JUSTIFICATION. When one accepts the love of God through Faith one becomes a new creation. It also saves one from the wrath of God. The power of the Cross is by default the strength of believers. Christ paid for our sins till the very last. How fortunate we are that we have a savior like Jesus Christ. Having said that WHAT DOES JESUS CHRIST MEANS TO YOU?
