THIS WEEK IN RELIGION AND THOUGHT (by Robert L. Moody) The Sign of the Cross As we approach Passion Week and the festival of Eas ter, we think of the central e veuts of our Christian Religion AH of the religious laws prior to the coming of our Lord pointed directly or indirectly to Him and the Cross. The primary use of the Cross was to inflict suffering and shame. But, since our Lord went to Calvary and died upon the cross, it has been glorified, especially on the part of those who have receiv ed the benefits by faith. “The preaching of the cross is to them 1that' pe/tisih yoolisjhness, but unto us who are saved, it is the power of God.’—1 Cor. 1:18. Now, wherever we see the sign of the cross, it makes us remember the words that are vritten in an electrified cross upon the steeple of one of the leading colored churches in At anta, Ga., “Jesus’ . Whether we make the cross .crops our breasts, bang its mblem upon our walls or sing' of its wortli. let us let our lives tell the gospel story, “Jesus Staves”. “Tn the Cross of Christ I glory.
