Sin is serious—so serious it sent Jesus Christ to the cross. Flee from [sin] and stay close to Christ.

Be assured that there is no sin you have ever committed that the blood of Jesus Christ cannot cleanse.

Be willing to be sneered at than to be approved, counting the cross of Christ greater riches than all the treasures of Washington, London, Paris, or Moscow.

Great crowds followed our Lord . . . as He healed the sick, raised the dead, and fed the hungry. However, the moment He started talking about the cross . . . “many . . . no longer followed him” (John 6:66 NIV).

Sin was conquered on the cross. [Christ’s] death is the foundation of our hope, the promise of our triumph!

Had Satan not set himself in opposition to God . . . there would have been no need for God to send His Son to the cross.
