Acts 4:12
Salvation is Found in No One Else
12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.”
Romans 10:9-13
Saved by Jesus
9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. 11 As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.” 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."
The symbol of the cross is suffering...Thus, the symbol of Christianity is suffering...I believe it is an interesting and unusual symbol for us...It is a symbol of suffering and death...
Those who suffer and believe in Jesus find some comfort knowing their LORD died on the cross suffering for them...Our sins are what put Jesus on the cross...So those struggling with suffering find Him at their sides...When Jesus' suffering happened on the cross He saved us...He saved us from our sins, dying on the cross...He gave us salvation on the cross...Jesus died on the cross for our sins...Because of Him we might find strength in our meekness, our weakness, and our sufferings...
