“Τότε ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ· εἴ τις θέλει ὀπίσω μου ἐλθεῖν, ἀπαρνησάσθω ἑαυτὸν καὶ ἀράτω τὸν σταυρὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀκολουθείτω μοι.” Matthew 1624
“Then Jesus said to his disciples, ‘If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.’” Matthew 1624
So what’s your cross? Is it the guy in the next cubicle over who continues to badmouth Christians around the water cooler? Maybe it’s your neighbor with the “I’m pro-choice and I vote” bumper sticker. A malady of the flesh, perhaps: carpal tunnel syndrome?
