The Sermon on the Mount: "If anyone wishes to come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me"

Today Jesus tells us all about His mission: the Son of God has come to this World to save us. He wanted to do this from an uncomfortable, very painful place: the Cross, outside the city of Jerusalem. Indeed, Jesus is there; He is not angry, and He offers that sacrifice to the Father for the forgiveness of our faults. It is an unsurpassable love! - "If anyone wishes to come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me." No shortcuts available when Love is at stake.
