The Perfect Sacrifice

What does the cross mean to you?  What do you think of when you hear about the cross?  Some myth about a guy who died on the cross?  Some fairy tale?  
Let me tell you what it means to me.  It means salvation.  The gift of eternal life.  My sins were washed away by the blood of the Lamb.  That Christ was resurrected from the tomb.  He was seen by those who followed him when he was alive.  They learned His Words. 

The cross is more than that.  It's about salvation, eternal life.  You cannot be saved without the blood.  Christ was the perfect sacrifice.  He's referred to as the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.
