You know, if we sat at the foot of the cross long enough, we would have to come away greatly humbled – with absolutely nothing to boast about in ourselves. In fact, we would come away ashamed and convicted of the wretched creatures that we really are to crucify the Lord of life and glory. The apostle Paul never forgot his view of the cross. He said, “God forbid” that he would have an ounce of boasting or pride in his veins again. When it comes to salvation, it is only Christ who is to be “lifted up” as it were. His cross was the place of suffering, the place of substitution, the place of God’s entire satisfaction, and the place of eternal salvation. There is absolutely nothing there of ourselves that we can boast about.
