More From Soren Kierkegaard

In the cross is salvation; in the cross is life; in the cross is protection against our enemies; in the cross is infusion of heavenly sweetness; in the cross is strength of mind; in the cross is joy of spirit; in the cross is excellence of virtue; in the cross is perfection of holiness. there is no salvation of soul, nor hope of eternal life, save in the cross.

But we are gravely mistaken to think that christianity protects us from the pain and agony of mortal existence. christianity has always insisted that the cross we bear precedes the crown we wear. to be a christian, one must take up his cross, with all of its difficulties and agonizing and tragedy-packed content, and carry it until that very cross leaves its marks upon us and redeems us to that more excellent way which comes only through suffering.
