Good Friday

Cross isn't a decoration

Jesus was put on the cross, coz the Romans wants to make sure that no one makes mistakes.

Christians in Chorintians [profoundly wise people] - your leader was crucified which is only received by pirates -> embarassed them.

1 Cor 1:18-25 [NIV]

v.18
there's 2 ways : there is God's way or without God's way.
we need to chose.

v.19
No one is not too smart to find God.
It is God's plan.
It is not the preeching that saved people, but the Message -Jesus Christ crucified on the cross, that's been shared.

Relationship with God can't be : learned, earned, bought, transfered.
Only when He extend His offer : received the Son.

No one can aquired a relationship, only when God offers.
God choose His way.

The cross is the way God extended Grace for us.

I only can take whatever He offers.
I can't offer Him anything to make it ____ [value? unless?]
whatever I offer can't earned me His love.

v.22-24

There's nothing profound about "God". It's just the matter of God's way or without God's way.
They are just looking for someone to defeat Romans. It's weak and it's foolish.

v.25
The weak and foolish - that is what God's offer.
"The first will be last, and last will be first"
