Christian Focus

Three features deserve commendation. First of all, Finlayson's book is utterly biblical. Throughout the book the reader is given the Scripture's view of Christ and his cross. Furthermore, the reader is shown that Christ and his cross are throughout the Scriptures. While there is some effort made to draw a connection between each chapter, the reader is just as well off treating each chapter as a separate entity.

Secondly, the book contains an exciting combination of simplicity and profundity. Although a former professor of systematic theology at the Free Church College, Finlayson's insights into the death of the Saviour will prove helpful to both the preacher of the unsearchable riches and also to those who hear them preached.

Finally, the warmth with which these central truths have been investigated promotes within the reader a dissatisfaction with the often lazy and overworked cliché's glibly used. Any book that does that must be worth buying.
