1 Corinthians 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."
Before I came to Christ I had this same perspective about the cross. It was maybe nothing more than superstitious foolishness. But after I encountered Christ everything changed. The reality of this verse was brought to bear upon my life and the power of God was transfused into me through the hearing of the Gospel. I cannot now deny, though, that the cross truly is the power of God. It speaks of His greatness, His creativity, His mercy, His justice, and, ultimately, His amazing power.
O the wonderful cross!
