In the Cross of Christ I Glory
from Devotions by Prof. John Ude · host Prof. John Ude
Joshua 2:9-13 When John Bowring first saw the port city of Macao, it was all ruins and desolation. This once thriving port had been superseded by Hong Kong and abandoned to thieves and the relentless weather. But there towering o’er the wrecks of time stood out a bronze cross on the steeple of a church and thus began Bowring’s “In the cross of Christ I glory” (TLH #354).

What this episode covers
Joshua 2:9-13 New King James Version 9 and said to the men: “I know that the Lord has given you the land, that the terror of you has fallen on us, and that all the inhabitants of the land are fainthearted because of you. 10 For we have heard how the Lord dried up the water of the Red Sea for you when you came out of Egypt, and what you did to the two kings of the Amorites who were on the other side of the Jordan, Sihon and Og, whom you utterly destroyed. 11 And as soon as we heard these things, our hearts melted; neither did there remain any more courage in anyone because of you, for the Lord your God, He is God in heaven above and on earth beneath. 12 Now therefore, I beg you, swear to me by the Lord, since I have shown you kindness, that you also will show kindness to my father’s house, and give me a true token, 13 and spare my father, my mother, my brothers, my sisters, and all that they have, and deliver our lives from death.”
