The Unexpected Power of the Cross

At the cross, everything looks like failure as Jesus is mocked, weakened and left to die. Yet the insults around Him tell more truth than His mockers know. Jesus remains on the cross, giving His body to save people from sin and restore them to God. The torn temple curtain and His resurrection show that His suffering fulfils God's purpose, opens access to His presence and vindicates His trust. He offers forgiveness, eternal life and freedom to those who put their faith in Him. Bible Reference: Matthew 27:27–50 Preacher: KJ Tromp
