Why Is The Cross An Offense?

 


For the preaching of the cross is foolishness to those who perish; but unto us who are saved, it is the power of God.1 Corinthians 1:18 

In recent years there have been many stories of the cross being offensive and being forced to be taken down. A simple cross with such great meaning that even some people were it really having no real knowledge of the ‘cost’ associated with that cross. 

What is it about this symbol that is the source of such controversy? Why do people ban the Bible? Why is ‘religion’ kept from the public school? Why don’t some people want to hear truth? 

The enemy is alive and well in this battle of right and wrong and good and evil. He will try to misrepresent Jesus, the word of God, and even try to remove things that draw people closer to the savior. Be on guard as the battle has heated up. Stand your ground. 

PRAYER: I thank you Lord for the cross and what it means. I pray for those who get misled and deceived and make up another story other than the truth. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
