There's Still The Issue Of The Cross

The other day while driving through Brooksville, Florida for my company I came to an intersection and off to the side of the road was a large cross. Upon further inspection, I noticed a man kneeling down, with the cross resting sideways on his shoulder. I honked my horn in both support and appreciation of this stranger who was silently reminding us that there's still the issue of the cross. I thought on that for awhile as I continued down the road on my way to my next stop. There is still the issue of the cross, it stands in stark contrast to this worlds system. With everything that goes on in the world, there is still the issue of the cross. And whether we take note of it or not, we've got to answer for it. I've debated with Jehovah Witnesses, Mormons, Atheists, Muslims, Non-Believers and yes, even some Christians. And I've always pointed them back to the cross. You see no matter where you stand on politics, global warming, the rights of individuals, or a host of other issues that occupy our time, we'll only answer for one thing, and that is what did we do about the Cross? God isn't interested in anything else we've done, He's going to point at the Cross and ask us what we did with it. I can hardly stand to read the news anymore what with the influx of evil that seems to be getting worse with each passing day, yet I do read it, if for no other reason than to see where we're at on God's timetable. And when I look at Brittney Spears, and Marilyn Manson, and Rosie O'Donnell, to name just a few, I realize that the conscience of our nation has been seared. We need a move of God, we need an outpouring of the Spirit badly, and to those people I'd say, There's still the issue of the Cross! And that my friends is the reality of it!
