CHRIST AND HIM CRUCIFIED. It has been 2,000 years since the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, and today it seems that the Christian gospel has either been diluted to the point it no longer resembles the accounts from scripture, or else it has been complicated to such a degree that few can understand it. Christ and Him Crucified attempts to lay out, as simply yet logically as possible, the essential elements of the Christian gospel and glorify God by an examination of the central truth that occupies the Christian Bible: the life, crucifixion, and resurrection of the Son of God, Jesus of Nazareth. It is not meant to be an exhaustive theological dissertation, but rather a rekindling of the gospel fire that burned in the hearts of the apostles of Christ since the day Jesus had risen from the dead.
