With The Prince’s Poison Cup, Dr. R.C. Sproul continues his series of books designed to present deep biblical truths to children on their own level. In this work, he focuses in on the atonement to show that Jesus had to endure the curse of sin in order to redeem His people from their spiritual death.
When Ella gets sick and has to take yucky medicine, she wonders why something that will help her get well has to taste so bad. When she puts the question to Grandpa, he tells her the story of a great King and His subjects who enjoyed wonderful times together—until the people rebelled against the King and drank from a forbidden well. To their horror, they found that the beautiful water in the well made their hearts turn to stone. To reclaim His people, the King asks His Son, the Prince, to drink from a well of horrid poison. The poison will surely kill the Prince—but He is willing to drink it to please His Father and help His people.
Richly illustrated, The Prince’s Poison Cup will help children appreciate the great love of God for His people and the awful price Jesus had to pay because of sin. A “For Parents” section provides assistance in unfolding the biblical elements of the story.

Bec An allegory of John 18:11B that makes the biblical concept of Jesus drinking the cup of God's wrath easier for children to understand. It begins with a grandpa telling a story to his granddaughter Ella. God is the 'King of Life' who made all things. He made people to enjoy him and the things he had made. They can drink from any stream in the garden, but not the fountain in the middle. At first, they enjoy spending time with him and obey him. But over time, they began to wonder... a man in a dark cloak (Satan) lies to them to get them to drink it. Their hearts turn to stone and no longer want to be with the King. The King wants to save his people. The only way to do this is for his Son, the Prince, to go to the city of man where lies a fountain that is filled with poison, take a golden cup, fill it, and drink it (the poison was the King's anger over the sins of the people). If he did this the people would be healed and come back to him. The people treated the Prince badly, but still he approached the fountain. The Prince drinks the cup... and dies. But then the King of Life comes in brilliant white, touches his Son and brings him back to life. At that moment, the fountain turns into sweet water, and all those who drink of it have their hearts turn into flesh. I'd recommend for ages 7+. It also contains 16 scriptural discussion questions at the end of the book to delve deeper. This book has easy to read font, good quality paper and hardcover book. Highly recommend!
