The Glory of the Cross: Our Life through His Death

Just a few days before His crucifixion Jesus said concerning His approaching death The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. Truly truly I say to you unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies it remains alone; but if it dies it bears much fruit (John 12:23-24). In this statement Christ presented the Cross as the means of showing with great power and glory what He accomplished for those who believe in His death burial and resurrection. In it He also set the pattern for all those who would follow Him by denying themselves taking up their cross daily and following Him. The riches of Christs spiritual achievement for all who believe are manifest on the Cross as it is explained in the New Testament in all its dimensions. In The Glory of the Cross-Our Life Through His Death the author explains in thirty-one concise chapters all that Christ did accomplish and will continue to accomplish for us through His Cross. Understood fully these truths will lead to a heart overflowing with the truth of Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ and it is no longer I who live but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave Himself up for me. Read and rejoice!
