In Matthew 10:37-39, JESUS said:
"Anyone who loves his father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves his son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; and anyone who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it."
In Acts 14:21-22 we can read:
"Then they (Paul and Barnabas) returned to Lystra, Iconium and Antioch, strengthening the disciples and encouraging them to remain true to the faith. "We must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God" they said."
The Cross is the way to Salvation. The Cross is true Christianity. If there's no Cross, there's no Christianity.
