Customer Reviews for Inter-varsity Press The Cross of Christ, Study Edition
Inter-varsity Press The Cross of Christ, Study Edition
A compelling and comprehensive treatment of the centrality of the cross. Examining the apparent and underlying reasons for Christ's death, Stott defends the substitutionary view of the atonement and explores Christ's achievement through his crucifixion. He also discusses the implications of the cross for Christian worship, self-understanding, life, and hope. Includes a study guide. 380 pages, softcover from InterVarsity.

Simply read the title… that’s exactly what this book is about. In “The Cross of Christ” Stott discusses the purpose of the Cross, its effects, and how it should affect our lives today. He explains how the Cross worked to satisfy both God’s love and justice. The depth of this book is amazing. Stott discusses theological theories that have come up through the years as to exactly what was done at the Cross. Were we truly justified? Or are we supposed to be moved to justify ourselves by our behavior? Did Jesus really take our punishment? Did He die to defeat Satan? How does any of this apply to me today? This book has it all.
I can’t even begin to fully process this one after just one reading. This is a book I will read again and again. I think I’ll see something new each time. There’s just that much information. This is not a light read, though it is easily understandable. I think my favorite thing about this book is that the Conclusion actually summarizes (and even clarifies) the entire book very nicely. It’s a great refresher of what you’ve been reading.

Stott's work on Christ's work on the cross is an absolute classic. Not only will a new convert be further convicted through Stott's examination of the completed work of Christ, but the seasoned Christian will be regenerated in his/her love of the Lord. This book is worth the cost and more because of what it will do for your walk with the Lord!

This book is great for small group study or use within an adult Sunday School class. Although it can be used as a individual study, more can be gleaned from it when in conversation with others.

I'm quite excited to be starting a study with a couple other gentlemen that are serious minded believers in the Lord Jesus Christ. At first glance this will be a very thought provoking and intriguing book/study.

I purchased this book for a Men's morning study at my church. The first chapter was intimidating but with each progressive chapter it has opened my eyes to the profound sacrifice and helped me better appreciate and defend my faith. Great Bible quotes and writing by Stott. Looking forward to finishing.

His love for Christ, and his scholarship and study make Stott's book a masterpiece. The cross of Christ demands the attention of every Christian, and Stott shows us the way.
