Book Overview

In this book, Dr. R.C. Sproul surveys the great work accomplished by Jesus Christ through His crucifixion -- the redemption of God's people. Dr. Sproul considers the atonement from numerous angles and shows conclusively that the cross was absolutely necessary if anyone was to be saved. Opening the Scriptures, Dr. Sproul shows that God Himself provided salvation by sending Jesus Christ to die on the cross, and the cross was always God's intended method by which to bring salvation. The Truth of the Cross is an uncompromising reminder that the atonement of Christ is an absolutely essential doctrine of the Christian faith, one that should be studied and understood by all believers.

Classic Sproul

Perhaps the most crucial and basic of Christian doctrines also happens to be the most neglected and overlooked. I refer to the doctrine of the cross - the saving work of Christ as enacted at Calvary. The Apostle Paul could say that he desired to know nothing except Christ and him crucified. Yet today, even in the churches, this fundamental teaching is often neglected, misunderstood or minimised.

The Truth

In a day and age in which the Cross has been down played entirely or simply used as a band aid to patch every want and need imaginable, R. C.

great exposition on the doctrine of the cross

i found this book to be a well done exposition of the doctrine of the cross. It gave very well thought out answers as well as insights into the truth of the cross as revealed in the scriptures as well as insights into the dead ends any faulty view may lead us. I highly recommend this book to all.

How does Sproul fit so much in so little space?

Overview The cross has been the center of discussion and debate since the early beginnings of Christianity. What exactly happened that night? Did it even have to happen? What was Jesus going through as it happened? Who benefits from what happened on the cross? These are the simplified versions of some very complex theological questions arising from our understanding of Christ's work on the cross but if you think about it,...

Highly Recommended

Before I started into the text of The Truth of the Cross I read the three endorsements that came with it, one by Thomas Schreiner, one by Scott Clark and one by Bruce Waltke. It was Waltke's that caught my eye when he said, "The Truth of the Cross is the best book on the cross I have read." A man of Waltke's age, Christian maturity and status must have read more than a few books on the cross, making this no little statement...
