APPROACHING THE CROSSThe Cross of Christ, part one

“For the cross which . . . is an exposure of human evil, is at the same time a revelation of the divine purpose to overcome the human evil thus exposed.”

John R. W. Stott, The Cross of Christ

The visual symbol of Christianity is the ______________.

On the human level, Jesus’s death was due to:

1. Pilate’s ________________________.

2. Caiaphas’s ____________.

3. Judas’s _____________.

On the divine level, Jesus’s death was due to:

1. The Father’s ___________________.

2. The Scriptures’ _______________________________.

3. Jesus’s own __________________________.

The cross, then, was something done both ______ us and ________ us.

The cross enforces three truths—about ourselves, about God, and about Jesus Christ:

1. Our ________ must be extremely ________________________.

2. God’s __________ must be ________________________________ beyond

comprehension.

3. Christ’s ______________________________ must be a free ___________.
