The cross forces sacrifice into the heart of life.
It condemns selfishness, the oldest idol in the world.
It reveals God's method of dying in sacrifice, and being
raised again in power - as the process through which the individual lives.
- Dr. J. Kelman

Gal 2:20 (NIV): “I have been crucified with Christ and I no
longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by
faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.”
“There are no crown-wearers in heaven who were not
cross-bearers here below.” - Charles
Spurgeon.
