Evangelist Frank King addresses the preaching of the cross. During this time we call Easter or Resurrection Day, preachers everywhere are preaching about the cross. That is not to suggest that the cross is a seasonal message, because it’s not. On the contrary, the preaching of the cross lies at the heart of the gospel. For in the Bible, all roads lead to the cross.
The message of the cross includes the bodily resurrection of Christ. For Paul writes, “If Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins” (1 Corinthians 15:17, KJV). But we rejoice in the bodily resurrection of Christ because Jesus was raised again. And because He lives, those who believe in Him will live forever as well. Sad but true, if it were not for the Easter holiday, many churchgoers would seldom if ever hear the message. of the cross.
Christ’s death at Calvary was a horrific sight. For our sins and not His own, He went to the cross to die a barbaric death. The holiness of God demanded that the sins of the world be judged. The bloodiness of Calvary and the ugliness of the crucifixion were a reflection of the seriousness of our sins against a holy God.
