This Wednesday, we will reflect on the Cross of Christ and Godhead. As the Cross symbolizes God's gift of eternal life through Jesus, the Cross also has taken meaning in Godhead. The Cross is symbolic of the suffering for the persecuted done by protagonists at antagonistic hands. It symbolizes the innocent suffering to help the afflicted by unjust treatment. The Cross represents the suffering God's children go through to help those suffering in cruel creations.
The Cross represents the toll in suffering done by protagonist parties to help those persecuted by the antagonistic members of society. Whether criminals or tyrants the protagonists face the anger of the antagonists for butting in on "sport" of the antagonists. The meek and weak are meant to be abused in as many ways as can be come up with is the antagonist philosophy...
The Cross also reflects the innocent protagonists suffering because of their endeavors to aid the suffering from the antagonists laws, regime policies, and general practices. The treatment the antagonists give those in their power and those that get in their way can get quite hellish! Just think nuclear weapons and the hell on Earth these mere weapons represent. Spiritual antagonists can literally conjure demonic tormenters to afflict their victims!
The Cross graphically presents the suffering the children of God go through trying to help those caught in cruel creations. Some creations are not loved by their makers as a child slowly growing into a forest full of new creators. Some creators treat their work worse than an animal with the treatment they give it. Some creators even try to drain the natural intelligence and life force from the living matter everything is made from. These at times make their work appear godless and full of lifeless matter...
The Cross has grown from an instrument of cruel execution to a symbol of hope of eternal life to Christians. This Cross in Godhead has grown to represent the suffering by protagonists and victims from antagonist treatments and practices at their sport of exploitation of vulnerability... It is a symbol of hope. Hope one is not alone but has a Good Shepherd, a Comforter, a Counselor, a Helper, a Healer...
