Preaching the Cross and the Resurrection: Sermons that Focus on the Victorious Resurrection of Jesus

The cross of Christ is the very pinacle of the Christian faith. Without the cross there is no salvation, and without salvation, there is no hope. The world finds the bloodied cross and the mangled flesh of a Savior to be offensive, and even foolish. But its is the stark reality of Christ's suffering that paves the way for the forgiveness of sins and the prospect of eternal life, And yet, as powerful as the crosswork of Christ is, it would be meaningless without the literal resurrection of Jesus. It is His bodily, physical, and literal resurrection that sets Christianity apart from all the world's many other religions. While billions look to lifeless and powerless gods and systems of religion to merit eternal life, or nervana, or Shangrala, only those who place their sincere faith in the Son of God Who died and was raised from the dead for our sins will experience eternity in heaven, as well as victory over sin in the here-and-now. This collection of sermons presents several series that will help the busy pastor prepare and deliver life-changing messages that point people to the cross and the empty tomb.
