The things that make me laugh, weep, and live.
Simplicity at it's finest
Published on April 25, 2004 By Shulamite In Philosophy
It's not conservative or liberal, however they're defined. It's not about interpretations or the judgements of the mind. It's the opposite of politics, power, and prestige. It's about a simple message, and whether we believe.

We can water down theology; preach a word to suit our needs. We can justify sweet subtle lies that are wrapped in noble deeds. We can alter our convictions and adapt to social whims. But we cannot change the gospel or the truth contained within.

It's still the cross. It's still the blood of Calvary that clenses sin and sets the captives free. It's still the Name -- the name of Jesus that has power to save the lost. It's still the cross.

Some may say it's man's religion or ancient history. But the Cross of Jesus still remains the price for sin that sets us free.

It's still the cross.


(From Practical Praise, a song. I wish I'd wrote it.)
