In today's theological landscape the significance of the cross has become strongly affirmed and radically questioned. This exciting volume gathers theologians and historians who have thought through these critical and constructive issues: Do traditional understandings of the cross valorize suffering or violence? Are the older soteriological models, which see redemption as a kind of ransom or debt satisfaction, fitting for the contemporary worldview? Do they produce a piety that acquiesces in needless suffering, or does the cross precisely meet the massive suffering and injustice of today's world?Following an expert introduction to the issues and options by editor Marit Trelstad, each author addresses the Christian symbol of the cross in the context of current theological, sociological, political, or environmental issues.

This book reveals the meaning of the most momentous act in human history - the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. This epoch event was predetermined by God from before the beginning of time to accomplish His eternal purpose. Although there is no truth of greater importance to God's people than the meaning of Christ's death on the cross, it is astonishing that there is no truth of which there is greater ignorance among professing Christians. Although they know they are saved by faith, very few Christians know how to live by faith. Consequently, they trust Jesus as Savior and hope one day to go to heaven but, in between, they struggle vainly to live in this sin-sick world by the best of their ability and often mistake their self-effort for faith. This is not only tragic, it is alarming because God's people can be ignorant about a lot of things, but if they are ignorant about the cross, they are in real trouble. As God said in Hosea 4:6: "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge." The author clearly explains the glorious mystery of the cross, which is the key to understanding the whole gospel. Salvation is only the beginning and not the end of God's purpose for His people, for the cross of Christ is the door that leads to eternal union and intimate friendship with God.This book also contains an appendix with practical answers to thirty frequently asked questions regarding the meaning and application of the cross of Christ. All proceeds from this book go to support Christian evangelism and provide aid to members of the body of Christ in need.

Excerpt from The Meaning of the Cross: Studies of the Cross of Christ Throughout the Bible The new birth becomes an actual experience the moment that we receive the Lord Jesus Christ as our Saviour. By that act, on the ground of the atoning sacrifice Of the Son of God, we receive new life, even the life of God; we pass into a new stage, that of spiritual regeneration, regenera tion by the Holy Spirit; and we enter into a new position, that Of being the children of God. N ow I dare not and can not emphasize too strongly the necessity of the new birth, simply because the new birth produces the new creation, and the new creation is God's imperative demand and requirement for new life and for new service. One of our old Scottish preachers once said, All man kind hangs either at the cradle Of Adam or, at the. Cradle of Christ, and we have to choose. I venture to say that the ordinary church-goer has little or no idea Of the mean ing of that, and yet it is one of the essential facts Of the Word of God. The Old head of the race was Adam, and Adam failed and fell, and the Old creation failed in him and fell with him. It is very important to be quite clear about that. I want to quote from a great Bible teacher: If man never fell, then the Christ Of the Gospels lived and taught and died unnecessarily. These are words that ought to be placarded abroad to-day: That man is con sistent who abandons all, rather than he who, professing still to own allegiance to Christ, denies some parts of the whole. It IS a pity that all of our liberal theologians could not read these words. These are words by J. Campbell Morgan in the introduction to the book of Genesis in his Analyzed Bible.

In this, his follow up to Saved By Faithfulness, Mark Skillin examines the death of Jesus on a cross in light of the biblical covenant. He argues that a covenantal perspective brings together two often opposing views: that Christ's death was an atonement for sin, and that Christ's death provided a moral example for how we are to live. Saved By The Cross argues that the cross both cleanses us from sin and calls us to pick up our own cross daily.
