Description
A new title in the hugely successful "Problems in Theology" Series. This reader brings together carefully selected material from classical and contemporary authors on the role of Christ in reconciling humanity to God. The topics include - the status of different models of salvation; the cross as triumph or tragedy; models of atonement drawing on ideas of sacrifice, satisfaction and substitution; and the effects of the death of Christ in Christian life and worship. The contributors include Anselm, Gustaf Aulen, Bernard of Clairvaux, Austin Farrer, Timothy Gorringe, Mary Grey, Colin Gunton, Donald MacKinnon and Hastings Rashdall.
