#god #cross #resurrection #resurrection #glory Jesus brought the cross within the reach of the light that came from heaven, for that was the way to attract man's attention. The cross is directly in line with the brightness of the divine faces, that by beholding the cross men might see and know God and Jesus Christ, whom He had sent. In beholding God, we behold Him who poured out His soul unto death. In beholding the cross, the eye is extended to God, and His hatred of sin is discerned. But while we behold in the cross God's hatred of sin, we behold also His love for sinners, which is stronger than death. The cross is to the world the incontrovertible argument that God is truth, and light, and love (Our High Calling, p. 47).
