Crucified and Risen

All throughout the New Testament, we are commanded to pick up our cross. We do this by learning from the example of Christ that we see in the Bible. When we realize that the cross is not just a historical fact, but is also our present reality, it gives us the strength to carry our own cross. Do you understand what it means to “pick up your cross” and follow after Jesus? Have you been “crucified with Christ?” Are you saved?
