The Way of The Cross

The following is an excerpt from the book, So? Whatever!

The tent evangelist had just come into town and was setting up his tent.  A young boy watching the process was asked by the evangelist, “Do you know where the post office is?”  After the lad had given directions, the preacher said, “Son, come back tonight and I will tell you the way to heaven.”  The boy responded, “How can you do that when you couldn’t find the post office?”

Make no mistake about it, the boy had his priorities in the right order.  There are a lot of things in life you may not know, and because of the lack of information, life may be more difficult.  But the way to heaven is the most important piece of knowledge that you can obtain.  The way is well marked with a red thread that extends from Genesis thru Revelation, and that is the way of the cross.  When you come to a fork in the crossroad of life which way will you take -  the way of the cross or the way of the world?

Philippians 1:21    For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.
