What is the cross:

The cross is a place of death! The cross is where; God put to death the sin nature. What was accomplished on the cross? The cross made it possible for the Father to birth His Own children by Christ in you. Christ in you will be your salvation. That salvation is by a birth. There has never been a people like unto the born again. They are born from above.

The world will never know the Father, but by you. You are the birthed of God - with His nature. The nature of God is; Christ in you the hope of glory! The seed of God. That is the Christ the world needs to see and know..as it is with the child of God. The cross is; death to the old man for believers. The life that came from the death on the cross is; Christ in you the hope of glory! The only hope in creation!

Hi @soul man Just thinking last night about Philippians 2: the Lord Jesus was 'obedient unto death, even the death of the cross'....

The Cross/execution stake was an alter, just like the alter in the tabernacle/temple a place where in the Hebrew mindset and view is a place to draw near to YHWH. "To draw near" is the meaning in Hebrew behind the phrase "an offering" in English. Understanding the offerings in Leviticus in this light brings out so much in understanding what Yeshua did for us in the sense that through Yeshua we can draw near to God whether that would be the sin offering, trespass offering, heave offering or peace offering we draw near in the good and bad, in repentance and in joy and thanks giving of our praise.

Shalom

The Cross is a symbol of Christ and that he died for us on the Cross and washed away our sins with his blood, this is what the Cross represents to me, not Idolatry as many on this forum have put it or say it is the Devil's tool, God forgive those who say that.

There is an anointing I experience when I focus my thoughts on the Cross and Christ's suffering and death on it. In my heart I desire the redemption that Christ purchased for all mankind when He was crucified.
