The Six Miracles of Calvary: Unveiling the Story of Easter [Paperback]

William R. Nicholson (Author), Daniel Schaeffer (Editor)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 1, 2002

Magnificent insight into the miracles surrounding the crucifixion of Christ. Why was there a tremendous earthquake? What was the meaning of the three hours of thick darkness? Why was the temple veil torn in two? Why did graves open, and corpses come to life, and Christ's graveclothes remain undisturbed following His resurrection? Dan Schaeffer has skillfully updated William Nicholson's 1927 classic for today's seeking audience.

5.0 out of 5 stars Insightful, thoughtful analysis of the Calvary miracles, May 14, 2002

This review is from: The Six Miracles of Calvary: Unveiling the Story of Easter (Paperback)

Although this book has few pages, the insightful analysis of the miracles occurring during Christ's crucifixion are thought-provoking and drive you back to the Bible to check out the miracles with new eyes. If you thought you knew the story of the crucifixion, the tearing of the veil, the earthquake, the cry of Christ at His death, etc. the reading of this book will reveal many things that have escaped your attention. As many times as I have read the story in the Gospels, this book has shown things I have never seen in the different accounts of His death. We have used this book for weeks of study in our local Bible Study. If the Six Miracles of Calvary gives you a new revelation of only one miracle, the 3 hours of darkness, it is well worth the price. Absolutely fascinating, so glad we were introduced to this small powerhouse. I highly recommend it.

A great little book explaining the miracles surrounding the crucifixion and resurrection of the Messiah listed in the Bible that we sometimes blow by. This book is excellent for anyone, parent teaching children, teacher of Sunday school, pastor making a series for congregation, all based on the Word. Easily carried in pocket or purse.
