  • Christianity
  • has
  • been
  • dominated
  • by
  • the
  • sign
  • of
  • the
  • cross
  • for
  • centuries.
  • But
  • is
  • the
  • crucifixion
  • really
  • the
  • core
  • of
  • the
  • Gospel?
  • Only
  • a
  • few
  • scriptures
  • tend
  • to
  • point
  • in
  • that
  • direction.
  • Paul
  • was
  • “preaching
  • Christ
  • only,
  • and
  • him
  • crucified”.
  • He
  • told
  • people,
  • that
  • the
  • only
  • thing
  • he
  • boasts
  • is
  • “the
  • cross
  • of
  • Jesus
  • Christ”,
  • and
  • he
  • declares
  • boldly,
  • that
  • God
  • has
  • “chosen
  • the
  • message
  • of
  • the
  • cross
  • which
  • is
  • foolishness
  • to
  • the
  • world
  • to
  • destroy
  • the
  • wisdom
  • of
  • this
  • world”.
  • However,
  • if
  • we
  • study
  • the
  • sermons
  • of
  • the
  • apostles
  • in
  • Acts,
  • we
  • find
  • another
  • central
  • message,
  • that
  • seems
  • to
  • even
  • overrule
  • the
  • message
  • of
  • the
  • cross.
  • It
  • is
  • the
  • message
  • of
  • the
  • resurrection
  • of
  • Jesus Christ.
