The Power of the Cross

Morning Service
Feb 2, 2025

In his letter to the Corinthian church, Paul explains that the countercultural message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but is the power of God to those who believe. Christ’s substitutionary atonement creates a dividing line between all of humanity. We cannot be confronted by the gospel and have a neutral response—either it is true, or it is false. God enters into our helplessness and does what we could never do for ourselves. In weakness, suffering, and death, Jesus takes our place—trading his perfect life for our sinful one—an incomprehensible transaction of grace and mercy.

Topics: Salvation, Substitutionary Atonement, Grace, Mercy
