McNall, Mosaic of Atonement Horton, Lord and Servant I could keep going, but on all the problem with these reductive typologies, Adam Johnson, "Atonement: a Guide for the Perplexed"

@TylerWS @zugzwanged @colintoffelmire @LauraRbnsn @Praxeas I'd be very interested in that myself. Off the top of my head I can only imagine that Anthony Thistleton's volume on the doctrine of the Holy Spirit has something on the front end as he develops it OT, NT, etc. onward.

Reading Wright's Galatians commentary, which has brilliant stuff, but every time he gets near something someone might want to do some theology with he's "yes, it may have something to do with what later theologians were talking about, but not like they did, but more Exodusly"

@mattjenson @FellipeDoVale1 That one's got some pretty helpful sociology. I have heard Harvey Mansfield's, "manliness" is an interesting bit of philosophy on this subject and probably has a good the bibliography to raid.

2b. This is true in the Fathers. On which see J.N.D. Kelly, early Christian Doctrines, J. Riviere, The Doctrine of Atonement. An example from the 6th century: Caesarius of Arles https://t.co/2SZS7k8q0v Has elements of Christ's penalty-bearing, victory, ransom, substitution,

@JoelChopp @willyshakeslove @bethfelkerjones If you want an extraordinarily Presbyterian take on these things--and who doesn't?!--James Bannerman, "The Church of Christ"

4. also, just because, N.T. Wright's account in "The Day the Revolution Began" is actually a sort of version of PSA (especially when you recognize the actual diversity of accounts in the tradition) no matter how many qualifications & "I'm doing something new" caveat he writes.

Alright as a recent consumer of toddler music, I have to say that Sufjan Stevens has nothing on the nostalgia and lovely melancholy of Raffi's "Thanks a lot."

@benjamindcrosby I mean it's been dealt with a lot of other ways but Alvin Plantinga has a long chapter on this sort of thing and warranted Christian belief. Also, on this view, atheism is plausibly an inability to properly name your mommy and daddy issues.
