The Message of the Cross

Bible in a Year:

• Job 1–2
• Acts 7:22–43

The message of the cross is . . . the power of God.

1 Corinthians 1:18

Zhang was raised with, in his words, “no God, no religion, nothing.” In 1989, seeking democracy and freedom for his people, he helped lead students in peaceful protests. But the protests tragically led to the government’s intervention and hundreds of lives lost. For his part in the event, Zhang was placed on his country’s most-wanted list. After a short imprisonment, he fled to an outlying village where he met an elderly farmer who introduced him to Christianity. She had only a handwritten copy of the gospel of John but couldn’t read, so she asked Zhang to read it to her. As he did, she explained it to him—and a year later he became a believer in Jesus.

Through all he endured, Zhang sees that God was powerfully leading him to the cross, where he experienced firsthand what the apostle Paul states in 1 Corinthians, “The message of the cross is . . . the power of God” (1:18). What many considered foolishness, a weakness, became Zhang’s strength. For some of us, this too was our thinking before we came to Christ. But through the Spirit, we felt the power and wisdom of God breaking into our lives and leading us to Christ. Today Zhang serves as a pastor spreading the truth of the cross to all who will hear.

Jesus has the power to change even the hardest of hearts. Who needs His powerful touch today?

Reflect & Pray

How did you view the message of the cross before you received Christ as your Savior? Who might benefit from hearing your story? 

Jesus, thank You for leading me to You through the cross. I would be lost without You!

'Sup your way?

[beachn4fun]

Good for you.
I don’t do well with the cold either.

[beachn4fun]

Glad all is well with you.

Well, our weather has been nice.
We’ve had a bit of a dry spell but got a good rain last night.
Been misty most of today.
Makes for a miserable walking day.
