The Core of Christianity: Jesus and the Cross (04/09/'24) -Statement

The Core of Christianity: Jesus and the Cross Christianity's essence is intricately bound to the unity of Jesus Christ and the cross. Without Jesus, the cross is merely an ancient scaffold; without the cross, Jesus is viewed simply as a historical figure. Together, they form the bedrock of Christian faith, illustrating the inseparable link between divine sacrifice and eternal salvation. This fundamental truth is underscored by the Gospel of Jesus Christ, identified by Ptr Steven G. Lee as God's unwavering standard. Scripture passages such as Luke 24:6-8, Matthew 16:21, John 19:18, and Mark 14:28 provide essential insights into this divine narrative, reaffirming the crucifixion and resurrection's pivotal roles in establishing Christianity's foundations.
