The Atonement in Modern Religious Thought: A Theological Symposium

From a series of articles which appeared in The Christian World during 1899–1900, this volume gives readers a large and comprehensive view of the central doctrine of the Christian faith, and to consider the main lines of argument from each perspective. The Atonement in Modern Religious Thought contains essays from the most influential theologians from the turn of the century—from various countries, churches, and theological perspectives. It is designed for readers to gain mutual understanding on divergent—and occasionally contrary—views of the atonement. In addition to an essay by Godet, this volume also contains contributions from P.T. Forsyth, Lyman Abbott, Adolf Harnack, and R.J. Campbell.
