The Master of Love - by Augusto Cury

JESUS, THE GREATEST EXAMPLE OF WISDOM, PERSEVERANCE AND COMPASSION

Fourth volume of the Analysis of the Intelligence of Christ collection, more than two million books sold in Brazil.

This book tells a love story: love for life, for humanity, for its failures and overcoming. Only one person was able to take this feeling to its ultimate consequences and, in its name, give himself up to death.

In The Master of Love, Augusto Cury investigates the passion that Jesus had for human beings. With a poetic approach – although based on science, history and psychology –, the author studies the touching messages that Jesus left before dying on the cross.

Jesus knew that suffering was part of his destiny and that he needed it to complete his mission. Reflecting on their very generous reactions, we discover how selfish our attitudes can be and we realize our tendency to oversize problems, failing to see the valuable lessons they bring us.

Jesus Christ was a man like any other: he suffered, cried and experienced moments of extreme anxiety. Despite this, he was perfect in his ability to forgive, respect, understand, have mercy and dignity. But, above all, he was brilliant in his ability to love, to be a leader of his own world and his own emotions.
