It is not surprising that the cross has been discounted by modern theologians; it is because they have started with the love of God without His holiness.

If I hate sin because of the punishment, I have not repented of sin. I merely regret that God is just.
– Charles Spurgeon –
Listen, I’m against sin. I’ll kick it as long as I’ve got a foot, I’ll fight it as long as I’ve got a fist, I’ll butt it as long as I’ve got a head, and I’ll bite it as long as I’ve got a tooth. And when I’m old, fistless, footless, and toothless, I’ll gum it till I go home to glory and it goes home to perdition.
– Billy Sunday –
Every man is as holy as he really wants to be.
– AW Tozer –
The first and great work of a Christian is about his heart. There it is that God dwells by His Spirit, in His saints; and there it is that sin and Satan reign, in the ungodly. The great duties and the great sins are those of the heart. There is the root of good and evil: the tongue and life are but the fruits and expressions of that which dwells within.
– Richard Baxter –
At some point, it has to go from being highlighted in your Bible to being written on your heart.

He who died for you can draw your soul away from evil and toward holiness.

O Lord my God, in you I put my trust. Psalms 7:1
“O God, one day we will laugh ourselves to scorn that we looked for so little from you.”
– George Macdonald –
They alone are truly happy who are seeking to be righteous. Put happiness in the place of righteousness and you will never get it.
