RT Book T1 Forgiveness and atonement: Christ's restorative sacrifice T2 Routledge studies in analytic and systematic theology A1 Rutledge, Jonathan 1987- LA English PP London New York PB Routledge YR 2022 UL https://www.ixtheo.de/Record/1774520303 AB "This book analyzes the relationship between forgiveness, atonement, and reconciliation from a Christian theological perspective. Drawing on both theological and philosophical literature, it addresses the problem of whether atonement is required for forgiveness and considers important related concepts such as sin and justice. The author develops a sacrificial model of atonement that connects an understanding of Christian forgiveness with the biblical narrative of Christ's sacrifice and makes reconciliation between God and humanity possible. Offering a fresh and coherent argument, the book will be relevant to scholars of Christian theology, biblical studies, and the philosophy of religion"-- NO Includes index CN BT265.3 SN 9780367742188 SN 9780367754792 K1 Atonement K1 Forgiveness of sin K1 Reconciliation : Religious aspects : Christianity
