Many Christians accept that the cross of Christ is a central part of the gospel of salvation fulfilled in Christ. And this is true. But it is less common to grasp its full scandalous dimension. This very special crucified one should never have been so if there had been only men in the running. Behind the cross is the shadow of its greatest actor - God himself. This is why it is followed by the glorious certainty of the resurrection.

Don Carson is a renowned and accomplished theologian, but he also knows how to speak with freshness to the heart of the “ordinary” Christian. In this book, he shows with great finesse and sensitivity what God was doing in the event of the cross. He explains the fundamental meaning of this sacrifice and how this divine triumph has enriching eschatological implications for today.

It examines the amazing resurrection of Lazarus, a parable of another far more sublime resurrection. It reveals the dynamics that carry the message of salvation to the ends of the earth and to the end of the age.

This book is misleading. Behind the remarkable ease of reading lies a tremendous amount of biblical reflection, scholarship and faithfulness. As you close it, the reader is sure to wonder, "Why haven't I seen this before? "
