The Cross of Calvary by Jessie Penn-Lewis

The Cross Of Calvary is a stirring study for the maturing Christian and has been described as a classic work of its kind on the Atonement. Chapters include: The Cross and the Law, The Cross and the Living Christ, The Cross and the Holy Spirit, etc.

In a personal letter to Jessie Penn-Lewis about this book, Oswald Chambers wrote: "Your Cross of Calvary is pre-eminently of God. The splendid treasure of pain, your pain, has merged into the greatness of God’s power. Your book teaches clearly and grandly what the Spirit witnesses to in the Bible and in our hearts, viz: that 'the way of God' flatly contradicts common sense, and by utmost despair the Holy Ghost leads to resurrection triumph. The breakdown of the natural virtues seems to be the point wherein most regenerated lives are cast into despair. Your book will help these to understand that this despair must end in death to natural goodness and self, and be raised by the power of God into inconceivably glorious power and peace and liberty of life …

"You are clearer and clearer each time you write, and each day you grow from those past days of mysterious crucifixion, which is an open secret to those of us who have the witness of the Spirit …."
