1 Corinthians 1:18


''For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.'' 1 Corinthians 1:18 (NIV)


''Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, that everyone who believes may have eternal life in Him.
