- What “cross” are we to take up and bear?
- The stake on which He died
- His death
- The entire process of salvation
- I Corinthians 1:17
- I Corinthians 1:18
- Galatians 5:11
- Galatians 6:12
- Galatians 6:14
- Philippians 3:18
- Colossians 2:14 – Nailing the law to the cross symbolically canceled it and made it of no effect.
- Christ bore His own cross and each must bear his own cross to be saved.
- “What cross are we to take up and bear?” Let us look at Luke 9:23 again. If one comes to Jesus, he denies self, takes up his cross, and follows Jesus. Thus, one follows Jesus by denying self and following Jesus.
