The Attraction of The Cross — Gardiner Spring (Audiobook)

Originally published in 1845, this is the ninth edition from 1854, revised in 2025 for readability but not abridged.With deep pastoral care and a steady hand for truth, Gardiner Spring, beloved pastor and preacher, offers The Attraction of the Cross — a powerful appeal to anchor your heart in the saving work of Christ. Originally written for his own congregation, Spring’s timeless volume draws readers to the cross not as a lifeless symbol, but as the living center of God’s redeeming truth.Rejecting shallow sentimentality, he boldly sets forth the doctrines of the Gospel with clarity and conviction, challenging believers to guard against a weak, watered-down faith. With warmth and urgency, Spring instructs, exhorts, and encourages, reminding the church of the robust, practical, and spiritual hope found only in Christ crucified.Paperback 📖: https://amzn.to/4nCDzA1Scroll Reader 📜: https://scrollreader.com/audiobook/the-attraction-of-the-cross/Chapters & timestamps(0:00) Opening(1:05) Introduction(3:24) 1 – The Story of the Cross(33:41) 2 – The Truth of the Cross(1:16:24) 3 – The Cross: A Powerful Sacrifice for Sin(1:44:57) 4 – The Cross: The Only Propitiation for Sin(2:19:49) 5 – The Ultimate Purpose of the Cross(2:41:11) 6 – The Cross Accessible to All(3:05:25) 7 – The Cross: A Completed Justification(3:35:02) 8 – Faith in the Cross(4:12:38) 9 – The Inquiring Sinner Directed to the Cross(4:47:09) 10 – A Stumbling-Block Removed(5:47:50) 11 – The Greatness of Sin Is No Obstacle to Salvation by the Cross(6:17:02) 12 – The Holiness of the Cross(6:51:00) 13 – The Religion of the Cross, as Distinguished from False and Counterfeit Religions(7:26:12) 14 – The Cross as the Test of Character(7:59:31) 15 – The Cross as the Protection from Final Apostasy(8:36:51) 16 – Full Assurance of Hope at the Cross(9:12:18) 17 – The World Crucified by the Cross(10:04:59) 18 – All Things Serve the Cross(10:37:57) 19 – The Cross: The Admiration of the Universe(11:11:39) 20 – The Triumphs of the Cross(11:45:21) Closing Note
