CloseThe cross is the symbol of Christianity, which can strike some people as odd because a cross carries so many conflicting implications: life, joy, death, pain, hope, freedom, suffering. As Christians and churches have investigated and studied the idea of the cross, and in particular the actions of Christ on the cross, one of the themes that repeated itself was that of redemption. Christians have seen in the cross the key to their redemption. As we grapple with our problems and suffering and distance from God, it becomes clearer and clearer that we need someone to redeem us- to bring us back into a family and to purchase us from the slavery we find ourselves in. God has seen our struggle, he has loved us and responded to our hopeless battle with sin, and he himself has come to do something about it. He is our Redeemer!
Scripture References: Isaiah 59:1-21
