Bible Question: when jesus told the rich young ruler in mark to take up his cross and follow him ,what is the man's cross |
Bible Answer: 'To take up your cross was a vivid illustration of the humility and submission that Jesus asked of his followers. When Jesus used this picture of his followers taking up their crosses to follow him, the people knew what it meant. For some, taking up the cross might indeed mean death; for all, it means denying self. To follow Christ is a moment-by-moment decision, requiring denial of self."
