1. In the New Testament times, the crucifixion is a form of executing criminals and enemies of the state.
2. Taking up our cross daily means dying to ourselves everyday.
3. Being a disciple is a daily sacrifice for Jesus.

💪 Application:

🎙Discussion:
On a scale of 1-10, 10 being the highest, how focused are you on the Great Commission of Jesus? Explain your answer.
