NOTES

"The work of Jesus reveals to us who He is. The work and the person may be distinguished but never separated."-Dr. R. C. Sproul Most Christians recognize the importance of Christ's death and resurrection. But how many of us understand the theological significance of Jesus' actions before and after the Crucifixion? In The Work of Christ, Dr. R. C. Sproul looks at every aspect of Jesus' life and work, addressing such life-changing topics as:Why Jesus' baptism is relevant for our salvationThe similarities and differences between the temptation of the first Adam and the temptation of Jesus, the "second Adam"How God uses song to celebrate his redemptive actsWhy the Last Supper marks the beginning of a greater exodus than that of the Old TestamentHow Jesus' death and resurrection are grounded in the eternal covenant among the persons of the TrinityWhy Jesus' ascension makes a difference in our lives todayWhat we know and don't know about Jesus' returnMoving from Jesus' existence from before creation through His incarnation, boyhood, adulthood, death, resurrection, and return, Dr. Sproul guides you to a deeper understanding of God's beautiful promise and purpose behind the works of Christ's life. Written for anyone hungry to know more of God, The Work of Christ by renowned scholar Dr. R.C. Sproul is a life-altering exploration of Jesus' work, identity, and purpose. Dr. R. C.
