What is the cross? It was a brutal execution method that was bloody and inflicted long and painful suffering. The cross became the symbol of Christianity because it is the vehicle that brought salvation and redemption of sins through Jesus Christ. The cross was also the target of God's wrath against sin as Jesus took the sins of the world on His shoulders. This doctrine is propitiation which in the greek language means "satisfaction" because Jesus' satisfied the wrath and judgement of God with his death on the cross. Now all that written to say this, "Jesus paid it all, all to him I owe..."
This is grace. This is mercy. This is love. THE CROSS.!!!!
