The cross of Christ represents the spiritual, physical, and metaphoric reasons for our existence. At the Cross is a line-by-line examination of the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John as these apostles describe events from the Garden of Gethsemane to the resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ. This book is written for both new and seasoned believers so they may find direction for, and discover the ramifications of, that commitment. At the Cross is also written for nonbelievers so they can see why believers, from the martyrdom of Christ to the most recent Chinese Christian jailed and tortured for his faith, would forfeit their lives and liberty rather than deny their Savior. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe author and my friend Richard Allen in this second volume of At the Cross, has given us a very challenging call to be holy in an unholy world. His writing style has a Lenard Ravenhill quality that will greatly probe and profit you in your walk with God. -- David Clardie, general evangelist, Clardie Evangelism Ministries, Free Methodist Church of North America, Bad Axe, MI\u003cbr\u003eAt the Cross is thought provoking and inundated with great illustrations. Richard Allen points to the great depths of the cross yet presents these deep truths in words which a child can understand. -- Bill Johnson, president, American Decency Association, Fremont, MI\u003cbr\u003eI believe strongly that the evangelical life-style is the cross-style. The cross was an event shaping and shaking our world, but it was much more. It was the very attitude of the Kingdom manifested through one Man and promised to all people through His Spirit. Richard Allen’s At the Cross will help you embrace this attitude. -- Stephen Manley, lead pastor, Cross Style Church of the Nazarene, founder, Cross Style School of Practical Ministry, Lebanon, TN,\u003cbr\u003eAt the Cross is a call to self-examination in light of the True Light, Jesus Christ. Richard Allen exhorts the reader to throw off the traditions of men and pride, laying himself and others at the foot of the cross. A book for the honest saint and the honest sinner. It’s for pastor and laity alike. -- Steve Huston, pastor and writer, American Decency Association, Fremont, MI\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction   Chapter One: Where the world will neither accept nor believe  and will lie to cover up the truth  Chapter Two: Where the world will reject the truth   Chapter Three: Where even when faced with the truth believers  will still wonder, question and doubt   Chapter Four: Where in times of testing and trials we will question  Jesus and his deity   Chapter Five: Where Scripture is proven true   Chapter Six: Where we are reminded how little we know and told  to read Scripture   Chapter Seven: Where we won’t understand Scripture unless we  commit to look deeply and study   Chapter Eight: Where even believers will see things differently,  but once together the whole message will be clear   Chapter Nine: Where we will be accused—wrongly and rightly   Chapter Ten: Where we will have a crisis of faith and will  question ourselves and what we believe   Chapter Eleven: Where our faith, faithfulness and commitment  will be tested   Bibliography","brand":"Hamilton Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51037879828823,"sku":"9780761863687","price":34.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780761863687.jpg?v=1750937985","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/at-the-cross-9780761863687","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
