What is the significance of the Cross?
All the other types of death would not have fulfilled Jesus Mission 3:16 for humanity but the CROSS had unique reasons for fulfilling that mission. This is what came to my mind: The blood flow because of the nails pounded in the left hand, cleansed us of all the sins we have ever committed with our left hand. The blood flow because of the nails pounded in the right hand, cleansed us of all the sins we have ever committed with our right hand. The blood flow because of the nails pounded into the legs, cleansed us of all the sins we have ever committed with our legs. The blood flow because of the thorns pounded into the head, cleansed us of all the sins we have ever committed using our head. There was so much blood that flowed when Jesus was crucified on Calvary for you and me. It is His blood that cleanses humanity of their unrighteousness as Jesus paid the ultimate price for our redemption. It was at the Cross! When Adam and Eve sinned, they realized their nakedness and tried to hide it
