From the Preface "The preparation of this little volume has afforded me many hours of the sincerest enjoyment… it has warmed my heart with a new love to the Saviour and increaded my admiration for the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ.
I am more than ever convinced that the doctrine which I have only attempted to stetch is the soul of true relition and the only power by which this world can be subdued to the dominion of the Messiah."
In the ten chapters of this book, Howell looks at how the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, was designed by God from eternity; how by the cross of Christ the justice of God and the salvation of sinners are brought into glorious harmony and how through the power of the cross, all the countless multitudes on high have received their crowns and thrones of glory.
A great work by this much beloved Baptist pastor.
