The cross stands as a paradox in Christian faith: an instrument of death turned into a symbol of eternal life. While many saw Jesus’ crucifixion as a final defeat, the truth runs far deeper. Jesus willingly embraced the cross, knowing that His sacrifice was the ultimate act of love — not the end, but the gateway to victory. As Mountainbrook Church Pastor Thom O’Leary powerfully reminds us, “Jesus’ sacrifice was not a defeat but the triumphant foundation upon which our hope and freedom stand.”
