4.0 out of 5 stars Worth the effort., October 7, 2004
By 
David McAnulty (Belmont, MA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The book's style almost makes it unaccessible, the author's long, tortured, run-on sentences frequently requiring a few "re-reads" (hence 4 instead of 5 stars!). However, the depth and originality of insights the author brings to the subject matter is well worth the effort. He effectively questions the excessively "penal" or legal view of atonement that has characterized most protestant and catholic theology. The result is a refreshing, and very Christ centered look at the cross, which emphasizes the incarnation, the perfect Sonship, the trust, the "confession" of his brother's sins, as key elements of the suffering of Christ. This book will undoubtedly challenge you and will be influential to the thinking of any student of the atonement.
