"He Himself bore our sins in His body on the tree, so that we might die to sin and

live to righteousness." (1 Peter 2:24)

Have you ever wondered who was assigned the task of actually nailing Christ
to the cross? What was his name? Was he reluctant to do it, or was it simply
another command to be obeyed? Did he realize what he had done shortly after,
like the centurion in luke 23:47? Most of all…did he repent? While We can
speculate about that man, each of us knows him intimately. We did it – our sin
put Jesus on that cross. In The Cross, DiCianni brings to life the fact that it is
not possible to become a Christian until the devastating news hits you that you
are responsible for putting Christ up there on that cross (I John 1:8). Will we turn
and walk away, or will we fall to our knees in repentance? The man in The Cross
represents each of us who fell to our knees – who knew that we put the nails in
His hands and feet and who knew that He died for us.
