| | Atonement |
 | | The word atonement, constructed from at and one, means "to set at one" or "to reconcile." In Christian Theology, atonement denotes the doctrine of the reconciliation of God and man accomplished by the Crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ. | | | V Taylor, Jesus and His Sacrifice (1937) and The Atonement in New Testament Teaching (1940). | | | In the early church there seems to have been little attention given to the way atonement works, but when the question was faced, as often as not the answer came in terms of the NT references to redemption. |

| | Atonement is provided for inanimate objects such as a mildewing house, the altar in the temple, the sanctuary (i.e., the Holy of Holies within the Tent of Meeting), the holy place, and the tent of meeting/temple itself. | | | This is not to deny that the world has been infected by sin, just that the particular relationship of redemption that God has with his covenant people is not extended to the whole world, but simply to the people of Israel, and even that is vicarious, that is, through the priests and their cultic duties. | | | That the Bible's central message is atonement, that is, that God has provided a way for humankind to come back into harmonious relation with him, is everywhere apparent in Scripture. |

| | Atonement - International Standard Bible Encyclopedia |
| | In all atonement in Old Testament and New Testament the initiative is of God who not only devises and reveals the way to reconciliation, but by means of angels, prophets, priests and ultimately His only begotten Son applies the means of atonement and persuades men to accept the proffered reconciliation. | | | Atonement was made for the group by the priest without specific participation by the people although they were, originally at least, to take cognizance of the fact and at the time. | | | All the symbols, doctrine and examples of atonement in the Old Testament among the Hebrews find their counterpart, fulfillment and complete explanation in the new covenant in the blood of Jesus Christ (Matthew 26:28; Hebrews 12:24). |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Doctrine of the Atonement |
| | For the atonement was not one of the subjects directly disputed between the Reformers and their Catholic opponents. | | | The first is indicated in the above words of Pattison in which the Atonement is specially connected with the thought of the wrath of God. | | | For while many of their utterances might seem to imply that the Redemption was actually accomplished by the union of a Divine Person with the human nature, it is clear from other passages that they do not lose sight of the atoning sacrifice. |

| | Violence in Christian Theology by J. Denny Weaver |
| | I suggest that satisfaction atonement reflects the church after Constantine that had accommodated the sword rather than the early church, which was primarily a pacifist church. | | | In this struggle, God's son was killed, but the resurrection then constituted the victory of God over the forces of evil, and definitively identified God as the ruler of the universe. | | | The first point of this defense is to acknowledge that feminists and womanists are correct that the images of God and Jesus in penal substitutionary atonement are unhealthy for persons in abusive and oppressive conditions, namely a Father God who punishes an innocent Son, and a Jesus who passively submits to his Father's abuse. |

| | Day of Atonement - definition of Day of Atonement in Encyclopedia |
| | On the Day of Atonement the pious Jew becomes forgetful of the flesh and its wants and, banishing hatred, ill-feeling, and all ignoble thoughts, seeks to be occupied exclusively with things spiritual. | | | Hence also the greeting "May you be inscribed (in the Book of Life) for a happy year." In letters written between New-Year and the Day of Atonement, the writer usually concludes by wishing the recipient that God may seal his fate for happiness. | | | Yom Kippur completes the penitential period of ten days that begins with New-Year's Day, the season of repentance and prayer; for though prayerful humiliation be acceptable at all times, it is thought to be peculiarly potent at that time. |

| | The Atonement |
| | Atonement is the term that has come to be widely used to denote the substitutionary work of Christ which culminated in the sacrifice of Calvary. | | | The atonement is in view in the delivering Him up for us all (vs. 32) and in the clause, 'Christ Jesus is the one who died' (vs. 34). | | | The nature of the atonement is concerned with the ways in which the Scripture characterizes Christ's vicarious undertakings and accomplishments. |

| | SUMMA THEOLOGICA: Was our salvation by way of atonement? |
| | Consequently it seems that atonement could not be made to God by Christ's Passion. | | | The dignity of Christ's flesh is not to be estimated solely from the nature of flesh, but also from the Person assuming it--namely, inasmuch as it was God's flesh, the result of which was that it was of infinite worth. | | | And therefore Christ's Passion was not only a sufficient but a superabundant atonement for the sins of the human race; according to 1 John 2:2: "He is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world." |

| | The doctrine of definite atonement is not a Calvinist peculiarity. | | | The Lombard's teaching on the atonement is most famous for his use of the distinction between the sufficiency of Christ's death and its efficiency. | | | In the discussions before Dort, one often finds the elements of the doctrine of definite atonement, but because the question is not as sharply focused as it became in the early 17th century, the answers are not as detailed as they later were. |

| | The moral theory of the atonement |
| | If following Yeshua's example were the only path to atonement and salvation, then those who have followed a non-Christian religion would spend eternity in the torture chambers of Hell for what is basically the commission of a thought crime -- believing in the wrong God or in no God. | | | The Moral Theory of the atonement has considerable support in the more liberal wings of Christianity where it helps inspire believers to alleviate poverty, relieve suffering, and work for "liberty and justice for all" people including women as well as racial, religious, and sexual minorities. | | | There is no obvious mechanism whereby a person can achieve salvation and atonement with God by simply expressing faith and/or trust in Yeshua. |

| | McEwan's Atonement |
| | Atonement has been greeted by most book critics as a masterpiece that unexpectedly stayed at the top of the best seller lists of the New York Times for many weeks. | | | What they mean by that is that once a text establishes its interdependence on other texts its signification proliferates, Atonement offers particularly clear instances of what Kristeva claims are some of the different ways in which a text, in relating to other texts, becomes productive of further meanings, ways such as rereading and displacement. | | | Having mistakenly cast them in a story that totally misrepresented them, Briony seeks to retell their story with the compassion and understanding that she lacked as a thirteen-year-old girl. |

| | The most violent acts of the day happen offstage, so to speak, but the most enduringly destructive one is a lie Briony tells, a lie that will ruin two lives and overshadow her own for decades. | | | In the closing pages of "Atonement," in the voice of the aged Briony, McEwan contemplates her (and by implication every novelist's) "offences against veracity" -- and he delivers a wicked twist. | | | From this new and intimate perspective she learned that a person is, among all else, a material thing, easily torn, not easily mended." |
