Description
Book SynopsisA Close Look at Atonement''s Place in Contemporary Systematic Theology.
In light of renewed interest in the doctrine of atonement—during which a range of atonement models have gained momentum among different traditions—it''s important to map these models to the broader context of theological thought on this aspect of Christ''s work and to show how no single approach has the complete picture.
The proceedings of the third annual Los Angeles Theology Conference seek to identify the place of the doctrine of atonement in systematic theology. Locating Atonement stays away from discussion of theories of atonement, typologies of those theories, and contests among various theories. Instead, its focus is on the question: What else is there to do in atonement theology besides rehashing types and theories?
The twelve diverse essays in this collection include discussions on:
- Atonement and the concept of punishment.
- Atonem
