Paul's words in Galatians 6:14, 'Far be it for me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, ' highlight how central and personally significant the cross of Christ is to Christians. Jesus himself saw the cross as his divinely appointed destiny. As he began to experience the unimaginable agony that lay before him, he said, 'Now is my soul troubled. And what shall I say? "Father, save me from this hour"? But for this purpose I have come to this hour' (John 12:27). In Words from the Cross Ian Hamilton places Jesus' seven expiring words of grace and hope in their wider biblical context and explores their theological, pastoral, and evangelistic significance. The short chapters encourage us to reflect and meditate on the love of God which is 'the fountainhead of the gospel' (John Owen) and bring us to devote all we are to the Saviour who gave his all for us.
