THE BUZZ AT ZION
LIBRARY NEWS
No Wonder They Call Him the Savior
By Max Lucado
In your Bible of over a thousand pages, what matters? Among all the do’s and don’ts and shoulds and shouldn’ts, what is essential? What is indispensable? The Old Testament? The New? Grace? Baptism?
You’ve probably wrestled with these questions. Maybe you’ve gone through the acts of religion and faith and yet found yourself more often that not a dry well. Prayers seem empty. Goals seem unthinkable. Christianity becomes a warped record full of highs and low and off-key notes.
1 Corinthians 15 - For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the scriptures. That he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures, and that he appeared to Cephas, then the twelve.There it is. Almost too simple. Jesus was killed, buried, and resurrected. Surprised? The part that matters is the cross. No more and no less. The cross is what counts. My, what a piece of wood!
Come check it out.
It’s in your church library!
