There
are many different beliefs on how to get to God and many different ways to get
to Jesus, but Jesus is God and the
only way to get to Jesus is through the cross.
So if you want to find God then go to the cross…but don’t just stand
there! Go to the cross and look up until
you see Him…and when He invites you up onto that cross…and you say, “Yes,” you
must understand that you will never be the same. If what you are looking for is a better
version of the same, Jesus does not have what you desire. If you do still choose to climb up onto that
cross, however, God forbid you stay there!
For a time yes, but midnight
beggar the dawn brings resurrection! To
climb upon the cross and die with Him means that death cannot hold you anymore
than it could hold Him! So resurrect
beloved, resurrect!
*Jesus answered,
"I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father
except through me.– John 14:6
*Therefore we have
been buried with Him through baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised
from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness
of life. For if we have become united with Him in the
likeness of His death, certainly we shall also be in the likeness of
His resurrection, knowing this, that our old self was crucified with Him, in
order that our body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer
be slaves to sin; for he who has died is freed from sin. Now if we have died with Christ, we
believe that we shall also live with Him, knowing that Christ, having been
raised from the dead, is never to die again; death no longer is master over Him.
For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He
lives, He lives to God. Even so consider yourselves to be dead to sin,
but alive to God in Christ Jesus.- Romans 6:4-11
