Cries from the Cross

Description

Product Description No other act, event or movement in history was responsible for the birth of Christianity than the sacrifice of Gods Son. Obedient to His Fathers will, Jesus hung from a wooden cross with thorns pressing into His flesh; He uttered 7 cries as He suffered for us all. These 7 cries come to us in a new program that helps us understand what the cross meant to Christ and what the cross should mean to us. 1. A Cry for Pardon - Father, forgive them for they do not know what they are doing. 2. A Cry of Assurance - Today you will be with me in paradise. 3. A Cry for Compassion - Today you will be with me in paradise. 4. A Cry of Anguish - My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? 5. A Cry of suffering - I am thirsty. 6. A Cry of Victory - It is finished. 7. A Cry of Submission - Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.
