Book Synopsis Atonement and Incarnation by : Vernon White
Download or read book Atonement and Incarnation written by Vernon White and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 1991-03-29 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book Vernon White sets out to address the crisis of credibility that increasingly has affected traditional claims made for the Atonement, and attempts to explain how the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ can have a universal saving significance. The present work stands as something of a sequel to the author's earlier book The Fall of a Sparrow, which attempted to show how God might be conceived as being universally and specially active in the world. In this study, White concentrates on the saving nature of that activity, and the coherence which he feels emerges if this is grounded in the particularity of the Christ-event. In defending the constitutive nature of Christ's role in the salvation of the world, without relying on Anselmian or penal substitutionary models of atonement, White proposes an atonement model which could rehabilitate such a belief without offending moral and conceptual sensibilities. A supporting chapter is provided outlining the kind of christology required to sustain this model, while the final chapters of the book discuss the ethical implications of the position adopted.
Book Synopsis Defending Substitution by : Simon Gathercole
Download or read book Defending Substitution written by Simon Gathercole and published by Baker Academic. This book was released on 2015-05-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades, the church and academy have witnessed intense debates concerning the concept of penal substitution to describe Christ's atoning sacrifice. Some claim it promotes violence, glorifies suffering and death, and amounts to divine child abuse. Others argue it plays a pivotal role in classical Christian doctrine. Here world-renowned New Testament scholar Simon Gathercole offers an exegetical and historical defense of the traditional substitutionary view of the atonement. He provides critical analyses of various interpretations of the atonement and places New Testament teaching in its Old Testament and Greco-Roman contexts, demonstrating that the interpretation of atonement in the Pauline corpus must include substitution.
Book Synopsis The Nature of the Atonement by : James K. Beilby
Download or read book The Nature of the Atonement written by James K. Beilby and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2009-08-20 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A long history of biblical exegesis and theological reflection has shaped our understanding of the atonement today. The more prominent highlights of this history have acquired familiar names for the household of faith: Christus Victor, penal substitutionary, subjective, and governmental. Recently the penal substitutionary view, and particularly its misappropriations, has been critiqued, and a lively debate has taken hold within evangelicalism. This Spectrum Multiview volume offers a "panel" discussion of four views of atonement maintained by four evangelical scholars. The proponents and their views are: Gregory A. Boyd: Christus Victor view Joel B. Green: Kaleidescopic view Bruce R. Reichenbach: Healing view Thomas R. Schreiner: Penal Substitutionary view Following an introduction written by the editors, each participant first puts forth the case for their view. Each view is followed by responses from the other three participants, noting points of agreement as well as disagreement. This is a book that will help Christians understand the issues, grasp the differences and proceed toward a clearer articulation of their understanding of the atonement. Spectrum Multiview Books offer a range of viewpoints on contested topics within Christianity, giving contributors the opportunity to present their position and also respond to others in this dynamic publishing format.

Book excerpt: "How much can we really know about what happened in Palestine nineteen centuries ago, by way of making it a basis for our faith? Occasionally that question has broken out in quite extreme forms, suggesting the answer that Jesus may never have existed at all as an historical person. But now, apart from such absurd freaks of scholarship, we are confronted in a new way with the question whether we can know enough about Jesus to enable us to build a Christology upon Him. It is by challenging us with that question--not by giving us an assured result--that Form Criticism has become a momentous factor in creating the situation which exists for Christological thought to-day. It will make a great difference to the problem of Christology whether we accept or reject the claims of this new historical radicalism."--Chapter 1, page 27

Book Synopsis A Community Called Atonement by : Scot McKnight
Download or read book A Community Called Atonement written by Scot McKnight and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2010-03-01 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the centuries the church developed a number of metaphors, such as penal substitution or the ransom theory, to speak about Christ's death on the cross and the theological concept of the atonement. Yet too often, says Scot McKnight, Christians have held to the supremacy of one metaphor over against the others, to their detriment. He argues instead that to plumb the rich theological depths of the atonement, we must consider all the metaphors of atonement and ask whether they each serve a larger purpose. A Community Called Atonement is a constructive theology that not only values the church's atonement metaphors but also asserts that the atonement fundamentally shapes the life of the Christian and of the church. That is, Christ identifies with humans to call us into a community that reflects God's love (the church)--but that community then has the responsibility to offer God's love to others through missional practices of justice and fellowship, living out its life together as the story of God's reconciliation. Scot McKnight thus offers an accessible, thought-provoking theology of atonement that engages the concerns of those in the emerging church conversation and will be of interest to all those in the church and academy who are listening in.

Book Synopsis Christ Died for Our Sins by : Michael R. Stead
Download or read book Christ Died for Our Sins written by Michael R. Stead and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The atonement is at the core of Christian identity and at the heart of Christian belief. The title of this book, Christ Died for Our Sins, comes from 1 Corinthians 15:3, where Paul says that the death, burial and resurrection of Christ are of 'first importance' for the Christian faith, and are foundational to the gospel by which we are saved. Without the atonement, Christian faith is futile. Christians in every age need to be reminded of the central importance of the atonement, and this is especially so at the present time. The atonement is a 'hot topic' at the moment, much misunderstood within the Church, and much misrepresented by those outside the Church. For example, Professor Richard Dawkins, in his book The God Delusion, says that 'the atonement, the central doctrine of Christianity [is] vicious, sado-masochistic and repellent'. He caricatures the atonement as being based on a 'punishment theory' in which God the Father, the 'cruel ogre of the Old Testament' demands the execution of Jesus to placate his anger at sin.1 Dawkins' version of the atonement is a 'straw man', erected only to be dismissed. Dawkins is not alone in this - he is but one of a number of voices dismissing the atonement as 'a form of cosmic child abuse - a vengeful father, punishing his son for an offence he has not even committed'.2 However, what they deride or dismiss bears little resemblance to the genuine Christian doctrine of the atonement. Over the past three years, the members of the Doctrine Commission of the Anglican Church of Australia have devoted themselves to the task of preparing the essays in this volume. Our aim is to help the Church engage with the atonement.
