The Meaning of the Cross

R.C. Sproul

Often when people are at a loss for words to describe an event, they say that you just had to be there to understand the full import of what happened. Does that apply when we contemplate the significance of Cross? Fortunately we have Scripture to tell us what happened that dark day at Calvary. Scripture reveals not only the events as they happened, but what they meant. In this message entitled "The Meaning of the Cross," Dr. Sproul explores Old Testament passages such as Isaiah 53 to help us understand who the Suffering Servant is and what that means for us now.
