Download or read book The Cross of Christ written by Andrew Murray and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-09-05 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Andrew Murray relates in this work the importance of the cross to Christian belief, and to the lessons which Jesus Christ wanted to teach all of mankind. Although demonstratively brief, Murray's explanations contain a conviction and poignancy, explaining the centrality and vitality of the crucifix to the Christian faith. The crucifixion's importance in Christ's message and destiny, and the reasons behind why his spirit was led to a painful end upon the cross, are keenly discussed by Murray. He delivers explanations of the cross as a symbol of Christian attainment, wherein God takes possession of the human soul and frees it from sin for eternity. Andrew Murray authored 200+ works on the religion and ministry of Christianity, the Bible, and on topics inspiring Christians to lead virtuous and happy lives. Murray spent most of his life imparting the word of God in churches throughout South Africa, and in the 1880s became an important figure in the founding of the South African General Mission.
Download or read book The Cross and the Crucifixion written by Grace Dola Balogun and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2011-12-13 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christ paid for the sins of the people of the world on the cross. The work of redemption of God the Father, through God the Son, which started at the Garden of Eden, was completed on the day that Christ was crucified on the cross. As the great hymn says, "On the cross is when I first saw the Lord, and all my sins rolled away." All believers must come to the realization that the cross of Christ is the basis for our salvation. If Christ did not go to the cross, there would be no salvation and no eternal life. We would still be in our sins. We should all praise and glorify the God of glory for the finished work of salvation on the cross. If some churches preach and say to forget the cross-that Christ is no longer on the tree-those preachers are not preaching the true Gospel. The cross should be in our churches and in our homes, to remind us of the agony of our Lord, so that we may totally surrender to His Lordship and live with Him from this earth to heaven. Let us embrace the cross, the power, and the love of Jesus Christ for humanity through His crucifixion on the cross.

Download or read book The Crucifixion written by Fleming Rutledge and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2015 with total page 695 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few treatments of the death of Jesus Christ have made a point of accounting for the gruesome, degrading, public manner of his death by crucifixion, a mode of execution so loathsome that the ancient Romans never spoke of it in polite society. Rutledge probes all the various themes and motifs used by the New Testament evangelists and apostolic writers to explain the meaning of the cross of Christ. She shows how each of the biblical themes contributes to the whole, with the Christus Victor motif and the concept of substitution sharing pride of place along with Irenaeus's recapitulation model.

Download or read book The Cross of Christ written by William H. Wetmore and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2015-06-10 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most momentous time in all of recorded history was when Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came into the world to proclaim the kingdom of God. Because He challenged the Jewish and Roman authorities with the Truth of God, He was arrested, condemned to death, nailed to the cross, died for the sins of the world, and rose from the grave. Therefore God has highly exalted Him. Christ fulfilled the reason for which the Father had sent Him into the world. On the cross, our sins were exchanged for Christs righteousness. On the cross was Christ, the Righteousness of God; standing before the cross were we, sinners in need of redemption. He died as the evidence of the love of God. The result of the cross is that we have been redeemed and reconciled to our Father and Creator. We have peace with God; we have become the children of God. He who knew no sin became sin for us. The Righteous for the unrighteous, the Sinless for the sinner. Therefore, the cross of Christ symbolizes the glory of the Christian gospel (I Cor. 1:17); the fact that, through this cruel and inhuman death, the debt of sin was nailed to the cross (Col. 2:14); and we, having been crucified with Christ (Gal. 2:20), have been freed from sin and death and made alive in God (Rom. 6:6-11). The cross is the symbol of Christs love, Gods power to save, and our faith in Him, who died for us.

Download or read book Jesus on the Cross WHY written by Philip St. Romain and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2010-06-07 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What exactly do we mean when we say that Jesus died for our sins? What are the implications of his death for our lives today?In this book, author Philip St. Romain elaborates an understanding of the crucifixion that makes sense today, and shows how this understanding and appreciation can make a difference in people's lives. St. Romain's reflections focus on several themes, including the crucifixion as a fulfillment of the Jewish traditions of a suffering servant; as a new covenant between God and the human race; as an expiatory sacrifice; as a means of breaking the power of sin. His discussions are carried on in pastoral terms derived from scripture and his experience of living and working in the world. Most chapters include a section on catechetical considerations of a renewed understanding of the crucifixion, as well as questions for personal reflection and discussion.
