It-s easy to become sentimental about the cross. There are a lot of people who are. There-s a lot of sentiment about the cross, a lot of emotion about the cross, a lot of, I suppose, artificially-induced emotion. There are some people who think you need to sort of sit in a corner and conjure up feeling and conjure up joy and somehow conjure up even sorrow and tears, and have a full emotional bath before you engage in obedience. And if you-re not emotional about the cross, if you-re not swept away by feelings about the cross, somehow your obedience is not legitimate. Somehow something is missing that trivializes your obedience.----I do think that we feel emotional about the cross. We-ve expressed that with all our hearts tonight haven-t we- We-ve felt those emotions and rightly so, but I-m far more concerned that you have a true understanding of the cross than anything you might feel. I want you to feel, but I want your feeling to be generated by a true understanding of the cross. We have a large congregation, a lot of new folks coming into our church. I know in a night like this we have guests and visitors. As I think about what I want to draw to your attention it is simply this- I want you to understand the most important aspect of the cross. The most important aspect of the cross is not about you...
