The Real Meaning of the Cross | Billy Graham Classic Sermon

"Among all the emblems of the world, none is [as] admired, glorified and worshiped as the cross. It was the instrument of Christ’s suffering and death. And it’s also the instrument of our salvation.”
Listen as Billy Graham explains all that the cross symbolizes-including God’s love for you-in this 1985 sermon from Hartford, Connecticut. Watch more #MondayNightClassics every Monday at 8 p.m. EDT.

I was diagnosed with 4 mental health illnesses. Depression, anxiety, Bipolar, & schizophrenia. Took medication 2.5 yrs. & $2,700.oo shots for 2 yrs. I have been off these medications for over 2.5 yrs now. I was delivered from anxiety, fear, paranoia, depression & much more. The Good Lord is the Great Physician & healer, Jesus is the way maker!! Proverbs 12:25 (NKJV) Anxiety in the heart of man causes depression, But a good word makes it glad. Colossians 1:13 (KJV) Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: Thank You Dear Lord Jesus for helping a sinner like me, delivering me from darkness, I Praise You Dear HEAVENLY FATHER GOD in Jesus name & I Glorify YOU in all Jesus does for me!!!!!!! THANK YOU DEAR LORD FOR YOUR PRECIOUS BLOOD THAT REDEEMS ME FROM MY SINS.. !!!!!!!

[@regi1948]

Thanks for the sermon . The Christian Cross is taught to every Believer at its best and understood as well. Human histories have recorded many a varied betrayals of the God Sent. Betrayals amongst the mankind is now an ' art ' of the intellect and intelligence almost in these last times of the Christian era . Neutrality in the Spirit poses to be the need of the hour , if I am not wrong to hope 🙏

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: [9] Not of works, lest any man should boast. [10] For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them

[@thee_bulldawg1879]

I want to give my life to Jesus. But my flesh i weak, I'm tempted to sin and i give in almost all the time. I enjoy listening to Billy Grahams sermons, they touch my soul. I need someone to mentor me, i need a friend bound through christ. Please

[@user-fc1df1rz8k]

Just confess Jesus Lordship over your life according to Romans 10:9,10. Then you are already born again. Don't bother about your feelings at the moment. It's by grace through faith. It's your human spirit that's born again NOT your body. Begin to read the word of God from the book of John.
