Jessie Penn-Lewis emphasizes the significance of the Cross as the 'Logos' or 'Word' of God, which embodies His inward thought for humanity's salvation. She explains that the power of the Cross is not in the preaching itself but in the proclamation of the Word of the Cross, which must be delivered simply and boldly, as Paul did. The message includes both the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ, and the urgency of this proclamation is paramount, especially in a time when many turn away from sound doctrine. Penn-Lewis urges believers to recognize their responsibility as heralds of this message, relying on the Holy Spirit's power rather than human wisdom. Ultimately, she calls for a return to the straightforward declaration of the Cross to counter the apostasy within the church.
