The Inwrought Principle of the Cross

To interpret the redemptive work of the historic Cross only as a happy remedy for sin, and a source of power and blessing for self, may be just another example of this man-centered blindness. Alas, such a one has only seen the Cross as the answer to his own need. He has completely missed the eternal Cross which God intends to be inwrought in man. It is only as this inwrought principle of giving becomes operative that suddenly man becomes alive to all that God longs to realize in his (or her) life.- Devern Fromke, Ultimate Intention
