He explains how the traditional metaphors of Atonement, drawn from the battlefield, the altar and the law courts, all express something of the meaning of the life, death and resurrection of JesusGC?o?and examines their bearing on human life in todayGC?O?s world. 606 $aAtonement 606 $aMetaphor$xReligious aspects$xChristianity 606 $aRationalism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAtonement. 615 0$aMetaphor$xReligious aspects$xChristianity. 615 0$aRationalism. 676 $a232/.3 700 $aGunton$b Colin E$0549637 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461551203321 996 $aThe actuality of atonement$92213788 997 $aUNINA
