This Christian classic stands in the spiritual tradition of works by e.g. Madame Guyon, Gerhard Tersteegen, William Law, Andrew Murray, Oswald Chambers, Jessie Penn-Lewis or F.J. Huegel.
It was the French priest, Lacordaire, who said that the Church was "born crucified". By this he meant that all the members of the Divine Head, the members of the Body of Christ, died IN and WITH the last Adam, when He laid down His life on Calvary.
By relating the cross of Christ to the life of the individual believer, L.E. Maxwell shows how an understanding of our identification with Christ in His death and resurrection can lead to a life of better relationships, fruitfulness and personal victory over the powers of darkness. This book reminds the believer that, from the moment he is saved, he is so related to the Cross of Jesus Christ, that, if he henceforth fails to live BY the cross (in spiritual apprehension on a daily basis), he is an utter ethical contradiction to himself, to the spiritual and physical world and to his position as an "enthroned Christian" in Christ, the Risen One.
The cross of Jesus Christ definitely is THE key to all situations. If we lose THAT key, we miss the road not only in reading and comprehending the Bible, we then miss the road in the whole of our life.

In this book Maxwell focuses on one of the most incredible aspects of the Christian walk--our life in Christ. Maxwell illustrates well our new life as found through our partnership in Christ's death and resurrection. The truth in this book is refreshing to any believer who wants to better understand how to walk and live in new freedom.

This book is rare indeed, for it offers the same challenge our Lord did: "If anyone would be my disciple he will deny himself, take up his cross DAILY and follow Me". I recommend this book only to those who have truly passed through the narrow gate and seek Life.
