The Cross is Better!
The Whole of Scripture is about reconciling a “Fallen Man” to a “Holy God”The cross is the “Arm of God” reaching down to man!Death & Resurrection is the essence of our Christian Faith!

the hardships and suffering [which you are called to
endure] as a good (first-class) soldier of Christ Jesus.

who enlisted him. 2 Timothy 2:3-5 (AMP)
