Why Study the Cross of Christ
Reason # 4 – The Cross of Christ shows us that the way to victory is by self-denial
The New Testament appeal is to forget ourselves in service to others.
• Reward is not brought about by what we get, but rather by what we can give.
• Christ demonstrated this by the cross.

Why Study the Cross of Christ
Reason # 4 – The Cross of Christ shows us that the way to victory is by self-denial
Christ went to the cross and gave Himself for us. What He did, He did for us.
Death is not the end. The cross is not a symbol but a means to a greater life. Never die as if Christ had never lived!
Never live as if Christ had never died;
Never die as if Christ had never lived!
