    Salvation Accomplished

    Salvation satises the demands of Gods holiness


    ...the necessity of the atonement is centered on Gods love and holiness

    Major Views of the Atonement


    Ransom
    from Origen A ransom was paid to the devil: Emphasizes the redemptive aspect. Minimizes the personal oense of sin to God.

    Propitiation

    Sin is an unbearable outrage to Gods holiness. The atonement satises this holy outrage.

    Satisfaction
    from Anselm Satisfaction was rendered to God's justice: Views justice only as a code. Minimizes the personal oense of sin to God; doesn't go far enough.

    Moral Inuence
    from Abelard (Schleiermacher,
    Ritschl, and Bushnell)

    Salvation releases the elect from their bondage to sin


    ...the nature of the atonement is penal substitutionary

    Redemption was secured through an answering love: Focuses on man's need. Love does not pay for sin; it only softens man's heart.

    Redemption

    Example
    from Socinus (Altizer) Redemption was through an imitation of Christ's teaching and example: Focuses on man's completely free will - we are "inspired." We are redeemed when we follow Christ's example.

    Sin has a power that keeps people in bondage. The atonement purchases the elect out of this slavery.

    Governmental
    from Grotius (Whitby, Clarke,
    Watson, Campbell, Mackintosh)

    Divine justice was manifested, not satised: Christ did not pay a price for sin. He merely showed us God's justice.

    Salvation restores access to the presence of God for the elect


    ...the intent of the atonement is to reconcile God to the elect and the elect to God

    Dramatic
    from Aulen (Heim, and Whale)

    Reconciliation

    Christ was victorious over evil powers: Emphasizes only the dramatic eect of Christ's death.

    Sin causes enmity between people and God. The atonement brings God and the elect together.

    Penal Substitution
    from Calvin (Hodge, Shedd,
    Berkhof, Strong, Dale, Denny, Forsyth, Barth)

    Christ was punished in man's place: Emphasizes the personal oense of sin to God. Renders God propitious (satised) toward sinners.
