Preaching Christ Crucified

The Church often speaks of the effects of the Cross instead of preaching Christ crucified. It is more politically correct to speak of sanctification, spiritual giftedness, even salvation rather than the tradgedy of the Cross. Spiritual power begins with the Cross. It captures the Mind of God when we witness Him offer up His Son in sacrifice. From this emulates all of the power of the universe. To change the hearts of the people, they need to hear over and over again the Cross and from that God will release His power.
