2 Cross of Christ in Prophecy
Psa 22:16-18 – For dogs have surrounded Me; the congregation of the wicked has enclosed Me. They pierced My hands & My feet I can count all My bones. They look and stare at Me. 18 They divide My garments among them, and for My clothing they cast lots.

3 Cross of Christ in Prophecy
Isa 53:5 – But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement for our peace was upon Him, & by His stripes we are healed.

4 Cross of Christ in Prophecy
Isa 53:9, 12 – And they made His grave with the wicked [Deut 27:26; 21:23 Gal 3:10, 13] … He was numbered with the transgressors, & He bore the sin of many, & made intercession for the transgressors. Luke 22:37 – I say to you that this which is written must still be accomplished in Me: ‘And He was numbered with the transgressors.’ For the things concerning Me have an end.”

5 Cross of Christ in Prophecy
Zech 12:10 – And I will pour on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of grace and supplication; then they will look on Me whom they pierced. Yes, they will mourn for Him as one mourns for his only son, and grieve for Him as one grieves for a firstborn.

6 Cross of Christ in Prophecy
Zech 13:1 – In that day a fountain [blood; Matt 5:29; Eph 1:7; Col 1:14; 1 Pet 1:18-19] shall be opened for the house of David & for the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for sin & for uncleanness.

7 The Cross of a Savior 1 Cor 1:17-18 – For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect.18 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it [gospel] is the power of God.

8 The Cross of a Savior A Cross of Love
John 3:14, 16 – “And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up…For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” Rev 1:5 – To Him who loved us & washed us from our sins in His own blood.

9 The Cross of a Savior A Cross of Sacrifice
Eph 5:2 – …walk in love, as Christ also has loved us & given Himself for us, an offering & a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma. Time away from heaven (John 6:38) Equality with God (Phil 2:6-8) Immunity to temptation (Jas 1:13; Heb 4:15) Spotless reputation (2 Cor 5:21)

10 The Cross of a Savior A Cross of Reconciliation & Peace
Col 1:19-20 – For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell, 20 & by Him to reconcile [to bring back to a former state of harmony] all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on earth or things in heaven, having made peace through the blood of His cross.

11 The Cross of a Savior A Cross of Reconciliation & Peace
Col 1:19-20 – For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell, 20 & by Him to reconcile [to bring back to a former state of harmony] all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on earth or things in heaven, having made peace through the blood of His cross. Nations (Eph 2:13-16) Races, classes, genders (Gal 3:28)

12 The Cross of a Savior A Cross of Joy
Heb 12:2 – looking unto Jesus, the author & finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, & has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. (Joy over us: Heb 2:10-13)

13 The Cross of a Criminal Matt 27:42-44 – “He saved others; Himself He cannot save. If He is the King of Israel, let Him now come down from the cross, & we will believe Him. 43 He trusted in God; let Him deliver Him now if He will have Him; for He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’” 44 Even the robbers who were crucified with Him reviled Him with the same thing. No fear of God (Rom 3:10-18) Hardened heart (John 11:47; 12:37; Rom 9:22)

14 The Cross of a Penitent Soul
Luke 23:40-43 – But the other, answering, rebuked him, saying, “Do you not even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation? 41 And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this Man has done nothing wrong.” 42 Then he said to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom.” 43 And Jesus said to him, “Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.”
