    Historical Views of Salvation: From Penal Substitution to Christus Victor

    Mejor cita de Historical Views of Salvation: From Penal Substitution to Christus Victor

    “

    Atonement is just a fancy word for 'at-one-ment'—it’s about ending the separation. It’s not about changing God’s mind about us; it’s about changing our minds about God.

    ”

    Pregunta de entrada

    What are the different views of salvation. I’ve heard of the justification, like god had to pay the price .. which is strange, pay the price to himself. What do the Unitarians believe about what Jesus did? What are other historical views? How did the legal view win, that it’s a payment to gods wrath. Is there views where Christ is just prepared a way through death, or cleansed, prepared the human soul for eternal life.
