In the real world of pain, how could one worship a God who was immune to it?" With compelling honesty John Stott confronts this generation with the centrality of the cross in God's redemption of the world -- a world now haunted by the memories of Auschwitz, the pain of oppression and the specter of nuclear war. <br><br>Can we see triumph in tragedy, victory in shame? Why should an object of Roman distaste and Jewish disgust be the emblem of our worship and the axiom of our faith? And what does it mean for us today? <br><br>Now from one of the foremost preachers and Christian leaders of our day comes theology at its readable best, a contemporary restatement of the meaning of the cross. At the cross Stott finds the majesty and love of God disclosed, the sin and bondage of the world exposed. <br><br>More than a study of the atonement, this book brings Scripture into living dialogue with Christian theology and the twentieth century. What emerges is a pattern for Christian life and worship, hope and mission. <br><br>Destined to be a classic study of the center of our faith, Stott's work is the product of a uniquely gifted pastor, scholar and Christian statesman. His penetrating insight, charitable scholarship and pastoral warmth are guaranteed to feed both heart and mind. -Product Description from Amazon.com 2021166 1986 The Cross of Christ total:105|5:61|4:34|3:8|2:1|1:1| 105 468 220 23 73188 083083320X 9780830833207 92 19 4.46 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170834319m/73188.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/73188.The_Cross_of_Christ 4 1 false Fri Mar 23 09:23:29 -0700 2007 Thu Apr 30 22:34:27 -0700 2009
