"So in this final word, the great mystery of the Cross shines forth. The new cosmic liturgy is accomplished. The Cross of Jesus replaces all other acts of worship as the one true glorification of God, in which God glorifies himself through him in whom he grants us his love, thereby drawing us to himself...Through the suffering Son, they recognize the true God."

I got to peruse some parts of it today at the book store. Some very good insights!!!

I like one of the points about the eschatological discourse.

I liked the part about Jesus' prayer in the Garden which included the doctrinal history of the Divine and human natures of Jesus and the points drawn from the theologian Joachim Jeremias. That was a very good section!

And I loved the part about the "experts" in the section of Jesus' first words from the Cross. Oh did I love that part. It is happening today.

I was hoping to find some commentary on the John 12:32 verse which is one of my favorites, but I couldnt find any, but maybe I missed it because of I was just perusing.
