The atonement is the crucial doctrine of the faith. Unless we are right here, it matters not, it seems to me, what we are like elsewhere.
Leon Morris
That Christ "died for our sins according to the Scriptures" (1 Cor 15:3) is the...single most frequently used lens through which Christians in the New Testament sought to understand Jesus...Christ dying for our sins is the starting point for all further reflection about him, such as the incarnation and the Trinity...Atonement is the cornerstone of all theology, being the "stone that the builders rejected" which has now become the
cornerstone (Matt 21:42; Mark 12:10; Luke 20:17; Acts 4:11; 1 Peter 2:7; quoting Paslm 118:22). The New Testament writers without exception understood the death of Christ as
the fulcrum for all theology because it was the worst thing that could have happened and the best thing that could have happened...The content of theology is the power in the
blood. It is the hub, made indefectibly strong by Christ's resurrection, from which all the spokes of theology derive.
Paul F.M. Zahl
Go on up to the mountain of mercy
To the crimson perpetual tide
Kneel down on the shore
Be thirsty no more
Go under and be purified
Follow Christ to the holy mountain
Sinner, sorry and wrecked by the fall
Cleanse your heart and your soul
In the fountain that flows
For you and for me and for all
At the wonderful tragic mysterious tree
On that beautiful scandalous night you and me
Were atoned by His blood and forever washed white
On that beautiful, scandalous night
Beautiful, Scandalous Night words by S. Hindalong
