Why has the symbol of the cross remained so popular? Was there anything unique about the crucifixion of Jesus? Why was he put to death? What difference does the cross make today? John Blanchard answers all these questions and makes it clear that the death of Jesus is our only hope for forgiveness of sins and eternal life.

‘Have you ever wondered why Christians see so much significance in the death of Jesus Christ on a cross? Why did Jesus have to die? Why such a humiliating public execution? And what does His death mean for me? John Blanchard answers those questions and, drawing on the eyewitness accounts recorded in the Bible, he explains the meaning of the cross in a clear, simple, powerful way.’ John MacArthur

‘Urgently needed, lucidly written, Blanchard drives home the meaning of the cross of Jesus. No topic is more important than this one. Without the cross (and the substitutionary atonement of which it speaks), we are doomed for eternity. Read this and then, with the apostle Paul, boast in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ.’ Derek W.H. Thomas
