The Cross of Calvary and Its Message : With which is incorporated “The message of the cross”
How to understand the deepest Meaning of the work of Christ’s Cross. How to experience the Triumph of the Cross.
How in line this is with God’s way of revealing the meaning of the Cross to His children. The inner knowledge of the Cross can never be grasped by the intellect. The death of Christ at Calvary was something so awesome and terribly real, that only they who enter experimentally into that death can get even a glimpse into it.
The message of the Cross can never be merely a ‘doctrine’, for it
was something more than a ‘doctrine’ to Christ, and, as we see in the life of the Apostle of the Cross, to Paul. God’s way of revealing truth is to work it into a man’s experience – wrought out in the life, ere it can penetrate the intellect. We shall only get Paul’s knowledge of the Cross as we get Paul’s experience, i.e., we must be brought to the same experimental point from which he spoke, if we are to understand his message.
