Being religious without knowing the cross is like owning a Mercedes with no motor. Pretty package, but where is your power?
The cross is where God forgave his children without lowering his standards.
When our deepest desire is not the things of God, or a favor from God, but God Himself, we cross a threshold.
No person [should] walk out into the world to begin the day until he or she has stood beneath the cross to receive God’s love.
Nails didn't hold God to a cross. Love did.
