The Forgotten Cross is a small book, subtitled Some neglected aspects of the cross of Christ. In down-to-earth language, it is easy to read in spite of the weighty theological issues discussed. The author, Lee Gatiss, maintains the importance of the cross because of Jesus’ dying in our place, which is sufficient for our salvation. However, Gatiss maintains that because we are saved, our lives need to be different. The difference needs to be seen in our attitudes, our separation from the world, suffering, self-giving service, success and sanctification. This is a challenging little book with short chapters. It is practical and would be of value to any Christian.
