Sermon: What The Cross Teaches Us
Text: Philippians 2:6 – 8
Thesis: We Lean Much About God At The Cross.

March 31, 2024 Bulletin

I. Christ’s Sufferings Demonstrate That God Identifies With Us.
A. Jesus understands us because He became one of us.
B. God incarnate died in our place as our substitute sacrifice.

II. Christ’s Sufferings Define God’s Love For Us.
A. Our world is full of people who feel that God doesn’t love them.
B. Paul will point to the love shown in Christ’s sacrifice as worthy of following.

III. Christ’s Sufferings Display The Glory Of God.
A. The cross was a unique way of displaying the glory of God.
B. Jesus chose to display glory by serving and suffering for others.

Conclusion: On the surface, the cross looks like the triumph of evil. Where was God and what was He doing at this particular time? The answer is that He was providing for our salvation. Christ’s death accomplished a resounding defeat of the devil and evil. And this makes the words of I Corinthians 15:57 come to mind. “But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”
