La Vision de la cruz a traves de las Escrituras

by John Phillips

Sin Jesús, la Biblia carece de sentido. Sin su muerte expiatoria en la cruz, la Biblia no marca la diferencia. El renombrado comentarista bíblico John Phillips recorre toda la Biblia y demuestra cómo la muerte de Jesús en el monte Calvario es el hilo central en sus diversas secciones, libros y temas.

Without Jesus, the Bible makes no sense. And without his atoning death on the cross, the Bible makes no difference. Renowned Bible commentator John Phillips surveys the entire Bible and shows how its many sections, books, and subjects all revolve around the death of Jesus on Mt. Calvary.

Reviews

[Ed · Rating 4 out of 5]

The main part of the book is outstanding dealing with the gospel and the things that led up to the gospel from the Old Testament. There is one section at the end of the book entitled 'Things that took place after the Foundation of the World. Here he refers to G. H. Pember of whom I disagree with. He tries to introduce a Pre-Adamic race where sin came from. So John Phillips is promoting the gap theory which I strongly disagree with because of Romans 5:12. There is also a Scripture Index at the end of the book which enables a reader to go back and review and study.

5 stars
The view from Mount Calvary is a beautiful book giving views of the Cross throughout scripture. While not a light read it is very helpful for the believer
