Often caricatured, so-called 'limited atonement' is the doctrine that Jesus came definitely to save those particular people given to him by his Father. In a clear and comprehensive overview, Lee Gatiss examines the biblical and doctrinal case for this controversial teaching, explores key moments in its historical development, and expounds its implications for ministry today. 'a masterful, mini-treatise... I heartily commend this clear-headed, warm-hearted treatment.' J.I.Packer 'Gatiss makes his case patiently, respectfully, firmly. Those who disagree will find themselves much better informed; those who are sympathetic will rejoice to see the case freshly made.'

For the Christian faith, questions relating to God can essentially be viewed as centering around Jesus Christ. This significant work provides an examination of the importance of Christ's atoning act for man's redemption, which helped shape God's relation to humanity and the world. The author analyses elements which hold crucial meanings and messages for the Christian doctrine of salvation. The first six chapters of the book investigate single terms within the New Testament, such as 'tree' or 'blood' whose metonymical association with Christ's redeeming act has often become obscured over time. Various biblical interpretations of the Calvary event are examined in the seventh to thirteenth chapters. The final two chapters analyse the importance of the findings in previous chapters and their implications for Christology. Detailed research underlies the material throughout this text, in the tradition of Reformed biblical scholarship. Notes are included at the end of each chapter for advice on further reading or tracing sources.
