Title:
Mark Michael - "Bearing the Cross" (February 23, 1997)
Description:

  • Sermon start time: 02:11. Sermon end time: 22:34.

  • Our culture has an aversion to sacrifice and self-denial. Yet, this is the life that Jesus calls us to if we are to follow him as his disciples. It is only through the road of suffering and self-denial that we can walk into the glory of Christ. (Abstract created by Duke Divinity School staff.)

  • Key quotation: “Our sacrifice will not be in vain. We need not despair. For if Christ had not first born the cross, if he had not first suffered and died and been resurrected, then we would face a bleak duty. But with his sacrifice is hope and with our duty is the joy of discipleship, the blessing of the Christian life, and an eternity of peace and magnificence.”
