Luke 24:13-25
“The freedom of the cross is not about the freedom to abuse one’s power, to do violence for financial gain. The freedom of the cross is about truth—the truth of our sins laid bare for us to see because God actually believes if we can take in the truth, that the truth will set us free. The cross unveils the lies of abusive power and the idolatry of profit over people.”
