Stand at the Cross and Be Changed / Melashenko, E Lonnie; McLarty, John T / (PB/1997-1997/B+/USED)

*Condition Note: This book is gently used and clean. May have owner marks.*

Come, stand at the Cross. Join those who watched Jesus die. See through their eyes as they witness the greatest event in human history.

People of all kinds stood there that day. Enemies of Jesus, and His friends. Scripture-quoting Bible-believers. Devout church leaders. The curious, the passersby, people just doing their jobs. Almost-believers, had-been-believers, and those who truly did believe in Him--at least when it was over.

Which point of view would be yours?

One thing is common to this odd mixture of witnesses, common to all who stood at the Cross--their lives were changed. Some left with a new hope, a new belief in God. Others left with no hope at all.

Author Lonnie Melashenko shares thought-provoking images of the closing scenes of Jesus's life, and of the impact of His final words. The drama that day at the Cross was a microcosm of all human history, a preview of the final judgment. The most crucial questions center around Him: What do you think of Jesus? What will you do with Him and His words? Where will you stand?

Those looking for hope and courage will find it in the words and actions of Jesus that day. If you've never known or understood God's love, if you've lost confidence in His compassion for you, stand and join those who saw it demonstrated.

Don't let the rush of life sweep you by the most critical moments in history. Take time to consider again the sacrifice that Jesus made.

Stand at the Cross--and be changed.
