cross that frees them of this sin by laying down their life to God

               saves these victims from evil and death. So there is power in the

               cross of Christ to change the world and save the world by their

               submission to the Doctrine of The cross.


               1 Corinthians 1:23-24 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the

               Jews a stumbling block, and unto the Greeks foolishness; But

               unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the

               power of God, and the wisdom of God. So the cross represents

               metaphorically the wisdom of God but the world despises it and

               all it represents. 2 Thessalonians 2:3 let no man deceive you by

               any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a

               falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of

               perdition; Jesus said, if the blind lead the blind, they will both

               fall in the ditch. In order to stay out of the ditch somebody must


               have clear vision. In other words there must be an order or

               doctrine to lead us and keep us on the right path. If that can be

               established then what people are falling away from can be

               clearly established. Jesus has already paved the road to Zion and

               it is truly built on a solid foundation. Isaiah 35:8 and an highway

               shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of

               holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for

               those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein.

               The Highway is a metaphor of the path that Jesus made for us to

               follow. It is a holy way, a life that is sacrificed by taking up our

               metaphorical cross and that is denying ourselves the sinful
