A Call to Faith and Action: The Gospel of the Cross

Eliezer Cândido's song 'O Evangelho da Cruz' is a powerful anthem that calls for unwavering faith and active evangelism. The lyrics begin by setting a sense of urgency, noting that time is passing and it is almost midnight, a metaphor for the imminent return of Jesus. This urgency is a wake-up call for the church, urging believers not to be disheartened but to remain vigilant and responsive to Jesus' call. The world is described as being in darkness, and the church is encouraged to raise the banner of the holy gospel, emphasizing the faithfulness of the one who calls them and the assurance that they will never be abandoned.

The chorus reinforces the mission of spreading the gospel, urging believers to sing and proclaim the message of the cross. It highlights the role of Christians as bearers of light in a dark world, encouraging them not to fear because Jesus is present and faithful until the end. This message is a reminder of the enduring presence and support of Jesus, which should embolden believers in their mission.

The second verse continues the call to action, urging believers to take up their 'sword,' which is the Bible, and march into the battle for souls. It paints a vivid picture of a spiritual battlefield where souls are waiting in bitterness and need the truth of the gospel. The song encourages believers not to remain idle or claim fatigue but to speak the truth with the power and courage provided by the Holy Spirit. The repeated affirmation of Jesus' faithfulness serves as a source of strength and motivation for believers to continue their mission with confidence and determination.
