In My Place Condemned He Stood

On today's 'Knowing The Truth' Radio Program, we will listen to an interview I recorded with Dr. JI Packer about his book 'In My Place Condemned He Stood'.

You probably recognized that title as a line from the hymn 'Hallelujah! What a Saviour!' written by Richard Bliss and based on Isaiah 53. The second verse to the hymn states...

Bearing shame and scoffing rude,
In my place condemned He stood;
Sealed my pardon with His blood:
Hallelujah! What a Saviour!

In My Place Condemned He Stood combines three classic articles by Dr. Packer...

'The Heart of the Gospel'

'What Did the Cross Achieve'

And his introductory essay to John Owen's The Death of Death in the Death of Christ.
