The Cross. The central symbol of the Christian faith. "Can a church
be an authentic Church and not focus on the cross?" William Powell
Tuck began answering that question in his book, The Church Under
the Cross, and now he leads us into the second part of his answer
in his new book, The Last Words from the Cross. "The words of our
Lord on the cross have become very memorable. These words of Jesus
have been designated as the seven last words. They are, of course,
more than individual words. They are really sentences or fragments
of sentences. One of these seven words is found in the Gospels of
Matthew and Mark. Three of them are found in the Gospel of Luke,
and three are recorded in John. No one gospel contains all of them.
But, to me, that is a way of authenticating the gospels. Each
writer drew on what he remembered or considered most important in
those moments or what he had heard from others who shared their
experiences." says Tuck. A study of these words gives us, His
disciples, a deeper insight into Jesus' thoughts through suffering,
facing death, and what His death meant to Him as He met our need
for salvation. Rev Tuck further says, "These words reveal his
personal agony, his concern for others, his forgiving spirit, his
physical suffering, his ultimate trust and faithfulness in the One
he had proclaimed. Even in his moments of forsakenness he still
resisted the temptation to turn away ultimately from God's will or
deny the One who led him to this shameful death as he identifies
with sinners."
