ZUVA 5 REMAZUVA 5

A God-Glorifying Life

Our only boast is in the cross of Christ. Not in our goodness, devotion, efforts, determination, merits, cleverness, Biblical knowledge, obedience, or anything. Our only boast is the cross of Christ. For on that cross, our debt was paid, our sins were expunged, and our salvation was won.

Every single spiritual blessing in our lives was made possible because Christ our Lord died on a cross and bore our sin. Of course, we boast only in the cross.

John Piper, in his book, Don’t Waste Your Life, passionately proclaims the cross:

Christ is the glory of God. His blood-soaked cross is the blazing center of that glory. By it, He bought for us every blessing—temporal and eternal. And we don’t deserve any. He bought them all. Because of Christ’s cross, God’s elect are destined to be sons of God. 

Because of His cross, all guilt is removed, our sins are forgiven, perfect righteousness is imputed to us, the love of God is poured out in our hearts by the Spirit, and we are being conformed to the image of Christ.

Therefore, every enjoyment in this life and the next that is not idolatry is a tribute to the infinite value of the cross of Christ—the burning center of the glory of God. And thus a cross-centered, cross-exalting, cross-saturated life is a God-glorifying life—the only God-glorifying life. All others are wasted.
