The Death of the Cross – Part 2

Jan 26, 2025    Pastor Jeffrey McKee

In this powerful exploration of Christ's sacrifice, we're challenged to contemplate the immeasurable distance Jesus traversed—from the highest throne to the lowest depths—for our salvation. The central theme revolves around Philippians 2:5-11, urging us to adopt the mind of Christ. We're reminded that Jesus' death on the cross was not just a historical event, but a prophesied, voluntary, and substitutionary act of love. The parallels drawn between Psalms 22, 23, and 24 beautifully illustrate Christ's journey from suffering to shepherding to sovereignty. This message compels us to reassess our understanding of Jesus and the depth of His love. Are we truly grasping the enormity of His sacrifice? How often do we think about Jesus, and what difference does it make in our lives? As we contemplate these questions, we're called to a renewed zeal for God and a deeper surrender to His will.
