Excerpt from The Preaching of the Cross, Vol. 1 The present volume enters on the history of a most important period of the Life of our Lord, a period the charcteristics of which are in many respects novel. At the end of the last volume we had reached the central and turning point of the Public Life, in the Confession of our Lord's Divinity made by St. Peter, and in the promises made to the great Apostle in return for that Confession. Each of the three historical Evangelists notices that from that time our Lord began to speak openly to the Apostles about His coming Passion, as well as to preach to the people the doctrine of the Cross. But St. Matthew and St. Mark do not tell us very much of the events which occurred between the time of the Confession of St. Peter and the last journey of our Lord to Jerusalem before Palm Sunday. They give few incidents in Galilee, and the very important heads of doctrine which were delivered while He was in Peraea. The reason for this silence of the earlier Evangelists has often been stated.

Excerpt from The Preaching of the Cross, Vol. 2 The present volume of the Public Life of our Lord is entirely occupied with the larger portion of the great addition made by St. Luke to the Evangelical history, as he found it after the labours of St. Matthew and St. Mark. This addition, which fills more than a third of his whole Gospel, contains his gleanings as to a part of our Lord's Life which had no chronicler before him, having been spent out of Galilee, and before the time came for the Passion. It thus happens that this volume is entirely devoted to passages of the third Gospel, as to which St. Luke is our only authority. It was a part of our Lord's teaching which left many traces behind it of which we gather the importance from the passage in the Acts in which St. Peter refers to the preaching of his Master in the country parts of Judaea, properly so called. Of this we have no other record in the Gospels. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Preaching of the Cross: And Other Sermons The following sermons were written by the late Dr Crawford when he was one of the ministers of St Andrew's Church, Edinburgh. With the exception of the one preached before the Society for Propagating Christian Knowledge, they were not revised by him for publication; but the others also will be found to bear undoubted marks of that ability and thoroughness which characterised all he did. They are now published at the desire of members of his former congregation, and of some of his old friends and students, who believe that they will tend to impress on the hearts of many the precious truths he so earnestly commended, and will prove an acceptable memorial of one who was not more honoured for his high talents and varied attainments, than he was beloved for his many Christian virtues and for his warm attachment to the faith "once delivered to the saints." Dr Crawford held a high place among the ablest preachers of the Gospel in our National Church. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Why should the cross—an object of Roman distaste and Jewish disgust—be the emblem of our worship and the axiom of our faith? And what does it mean for us today? In the centennial edition of this study of Scripture, theology, and contemporary issues, John Stott brings you face to face with the centrality of the cross in God's plan of redemption.

Excerpt from Glorying in the Cross of Christ In 17 23, he was transferred to the fiorth-west parish of Glas gow. Here his preaching, both in English and Gaelic, was laborious and animated; and he soon became distinguished for his holy zeal and vehemency. To Americans, it is 1nterest1ng to recall his warm and earnest correspondence with President Edwa1ds and other clergymen of Massachusetts. His b1o grapher informs us that Mr. Maclaurin was the chief contrlver and promoter of the Concert for Prayer, which has been com plied w1th by numbers both in Great Britain and America. He closed his active and useful hfe on the eighth day of Sep tember, 1754. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Call of the Cross: Four College Sermons Two of these sermons were preached before the students of Iowa College in connection with the day of prayer for colleges. It is pleasant to testify to their evangelistic power as deter mined by that practical test. NO test is more practical. A body of college students is some what unconventional and entirely frank in the response to what comes before them. The combination in these sermons of strong intellectuality with, if possible, yet more pro found spiritual experience, is precisely adapted to effectiveness before college students. These sermons lift up Christ in order that he may draw all men unto him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
