How does Jesus save? Part Six: Happy Exchange
Last updated on: May 7, 2023 at 6:25 pm By Ted Peters
Martin Luther's "Happy Exchange" model of atonement is a distinctive variant of the satisfaction and penal substitution models. The exchange applies twice.

Last updated on: August 22, 2023 at 9:08 am By Ted Peters
The Penal Substitution Theory of Atonement is under fire from multiple directions. Here's one direction: PST is accused of divine child abuse. God abuses the Son by demanding his suffering and death.
