Day 38 - The Heart and Plan of Salvation of YHWH יהוה is the Cross of Jesus ישוע
1 Corinthians 1:18
For the Word of the Cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God YHWH יהוה.
~
For those who have not yet fully studied the entire Biblical Landscape (the Evidence for why it's true, the Jewish Background of the Scriptures, the Theology of YHWH יהוה and how His Systems operate, etc.), it is hard to imagine that the fate of all Souls and the Destiny of this Existence is determined by what happened to a Man on a wooden Cross 2000≈ years ago.
To the one who has not examined the original, non-caricatured, unaltered version of Jesus ישוע, the Word, and what He has accomplished - the Crucifixion will look like "mere barbarism brought about by the squabbles of uneducated, pre-scientific, middle-eastern religious hacks regarding their delusions of there being an invisible "sky-daddy", and that this Man (Jesus ישוע) claimed to be Him, therefore they killed Him because they got triggered, and He stayed dead, though His fanatical disciples made up some story that He rose from the dead to promote their power-grabbing, monetary, and political agendas; then this falsehood was passed down from one ignorant generation to another until today - end of story. It's all just a lie, a myth, a legend - just like the thousands of other religious claims from around the world - and we should not be falling for children's fairy-tales as wise, enlightened, 21st century, information-age citizens anymore. Believe whatever you want to believe, just do it in the privacy of your own home, keep it to yourself, and don't shove it down my throat please." (Speaking as my former skeptical / atheist self)
But, to the one who has actually given the Biblical Narrative the benefit of the doubt, researched the Jewish Scriptures on its own ancient terms and contexts, listened to scholars who actually gave their life to study the Word (and not to people who have never even read it, but act as if they're experts in the field and know what they're saying) - then they will discover that what is written in the Bible is the True and Final Narrative of All Existence (explaining who God is, where this World and Humans came from, and where it's All heading toward). And they will also discover that the Death on the Cross of the prophesied Messiah משיח Jesus ישוע, is the Heart, Wisdom and Power of YHWH יהוה - it is the Center and Dividing Line of All Things.
1 Corinthians 1:21-25
For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we preach to save those who believe. For Jews demand signs and Greeks seek wisdom, 𝙗𝙪𝙩 𝙬𝙚 𝙥𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙘𝙝 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙈𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙞𝙖𝙝 משיח 𝘾𝙧𝙪𝙘𝙞𝙛𝙞𝙚𝙙, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙈𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙞𝙖𝙝 משיח 𝙞𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙥𝙤𝙬𝙚𝙧 𝙤𝙛 𝙂𝙤𝙙 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙬𝙞𝙨𝙙𝙤𝙢 𝙤𝙛 𝙂𝙤𝙙. For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
1 Corinthians 1:26-29
For consider your calling, brothers: not many of you were wise according to worldly standards, not many were powerful, not many were of noble birth. But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are, so that no human being might boast in the presence of God.
