John 19:30
It is finished.
- Jesus is the only sacrifce needed.
- A shout of victory!
Philippians 3:10 - 13
Paul was prepared to suffer
A personal relationship with God. The Holy Spirit is in us. He encourages us to show compassion and to serve others.
Paul lost his self-righteousness and took on the righteousness of Christ. The same is true for us!
Knowing Christ is more than anything you could sacrifice.
Only by surrendering ourselves to God can we take up the cross.
