Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Atonement: Viewed in the Light of Certain Modern Difficulties, Being the Hulsean Lectures for 1883, 1884 The sale of a first edition of these Lectures seems to indicate that the want they were designed to supply has been felt. And in truth there is great need just now for a more widespread acquaintance with the true attitude of Christian theology in all ages toward the principle of Atonement. Every assault upon the Christian faith in these days involves an attack upon what is described in these pages as the "Substitution theory." And this theory is not regarded in any sense as a theological outpost. It is represented in all sincerity - for myriads of Christian Divines have so represented it - as the fundamental principle of the Christian faith. It is thus attacked in Mr. Cotter Morison´s Service of Man, a book which appeared after these Lectures were delivered. "The eternity of hell torments," he says "is a doctrine discarded by a number of divines, who yet cling to the doctrines of the Incarnation and the Atonement. There is nothing to assure us that, in a hundred years´ time, these also will not be discovered to be unscriptural." He admits, however, that "the Christian theology was evolved" during the decline and fall of the Roman empire.
