CHRIST TEACHES FROM THE CROSS

Description

Christ Teaches from the Cross – The Seven Last Words of the Lord on the Cross

The words spoken by Christ during the Crucifixion are brief, yet they are complete sermons in themselves. The Holy Cross is a “high pulpit” from which our Lord delivers “life-saving lessons and teachings.” It is a “school” of spiritual instruction. The lessons He offers are “wondrous and great, and exceedingly effective as remedies for every spiritual affliction.” The Seven Last Words from the Cross are the signature of the Lord’s spiritual Testament…

This small book you hold in your hands focuses—using simple words—on these seven sayings of the Lord from the Cross and the teachings they offer to every believer.
