2: The Message of the Cross — Singing with Inspiration — 1 Comment

  1. During the days of the Roman Empire when people were hung on a cross for all to see, was a picture of total humiliation, and degredation of a person’s total being.
    On the cross you would be completely naked, you had no clothing to cover your body, nothing but the skin you were born in. It was a means of disgracing an individual completely.
    So to look upon a person on a cross would cause others watching to be a very disappointing sight, and so there would be no glory in the exposing a person’s nakedness to te public.
    But, when looking at the crucified CHRIST upon the cross did not deter the beliver to look away as a shameful ordeal.
    The believer would ultimately see the glory and selfishless act of submission of Christ demonstrating strength and power, and not disgust or unbelief. A redeeming source of strength that carries us from here to eternity.
