The Old Cross and the "New Cross" by A.W. Tozer

I just read this post over at the Calvinist Gadfly by AW Tozer on the cross. It was profound and helpful, to say the least. Here is a sample:

We must not imagine ourselves commissioned to make Christ acceptable to big business, the press, the world of sports or modern education. We are not diplomats but prophets, and our message is not a compromise but an ultimatum. God offers life, but not an improved old life. The life He offers is life out of death. It stands always on the far side of the cross. Whoever would possess it must pass under the rod. He must repudiate himself and concur in God’s just sentence against him.

Follow the first link in this post to get there and have a good read; you won't be disappointed, but you might get convicted.

For God's Glory!
