Description

Now with a new foreword by Henry Blackaby and Tom Blackaby. L. E. Maxwell writes, "The cross is the key to all situations as well as to all Scripture." By relating the cross as essential to the life of the believer, Professor L.E. Maxwell simply and practically shows how an understanding of our identification with Christ in his death and resurrection can lead to life as it was meant to be lived. It is by living with a cross-centered perspective that we can have both victory over sin and show more power to serve God well. Maxwell's heart and vision for training up young poeple with the truth of God's Word and the necessity of evangelism shines forth in this little book. Readers know authenticity when they read it--and Maxwell exudes it. show less

For L. E. Maxwell, the cross was everything. He wrote Born Crucified to "attempt in a small way to set forth, not as an exposition or theological statement, but in simple sermon and exhortation, the role of the Cross in the life of the believer." In doing so, Maxwell made clear the way to victory over sin and empowered service to God.

Last words
(Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)In closing this chapter let me appeal to every minister, missionary, Sunday school teacher and witness for Christ - and who should be a witness? - that we sink ourselves afresh into the unplumbed power of the Cross to take the nonentities, the nothings, and the nobodies, and yet make them, even in this infidel and unbelieving age, a mighty host for God.
