Prophecies of the Cross Timothy L Fan

"O weak and worldly Evangelical Church, why is it that your pulpits have lost their power?"In Prophecies of the Cross, Timothy L. Fan asks the great evangelistic question: What does it mean to preach the Gospel in the very manner in which the Apostles preached it, namely, that Christ died for our sins "according to the Scriptures" (1 Corinthians 15:3)? Since the manner of preaching the Gospel in today's churches has become so very unbiblical-so dominated by mere words of "human wisdom" (1 Corinthians 2:4) and so wanting in rich Scriptural content-this question of how to preach "Christ crucified" as "according to the Scriptures" is one of the most important and urgent questions of our day. Therefore, this present work is presented to the Church as a sermonic display of how to preach the atoning sacrifice and resurrected glory of the Lord Jesus Christ as "according to the Scriptures"-which is to say, as prophesied in both the Law and the Prophets-and thus with that authenticating demonstration of the Spirit and of power which has characterized the historic, God-fearing preaching of the Gospel by His faithful servants throughout the ages.
