The cross was shameful. It was horrible. The early Christian - TopicsExpress



          

The cross was shameful. It was horrible. The early Christian understanding did not replace that symbolic meaning; it found God within it. It said that if you want to know who God is, youll find him on the rubbish heap outside the gate, where the shame happens--where the violence happens. The early Christian meaning of the cross is not found by ignoring its political and historical meaning, but by going inside it and finding God there. N. T. Wright
