I don't think the cross has sides. I live in the cross, under the blood, kneeling at the base. Then I stand before the tomb and lift my hands as I weep, tears of joy to my resurrected Lord. Then I stand on the Mount of Olives and wait with expectancy for His glorious return. The world either lives here or wherever. Wherever is outside of the shadow of the cross. Regardless of your religion or absence of. There are two categories -- saved or unsaved. View attachment 143785

18 The former regulation is set aside because it was weak and useless 19 (for the law made nothing perfect), and a better hope is introduced, by which we draw near to God. (from Heb. 7)
