Featured Penal Substitution Theory

If you mean has all judgment been given to Christ, then yes. There is the wrath to come, and we escape that wrath by being "in Christ" (in Whom there is no condemnation).

John 3:18–19 “He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
19 “This is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil.

 

Yes. That is what I have been saying.

Per Isaiah 53 the World considered Christ to be stricken or afflicted by God when instead He was redeeming man. His suffering and death was via evil men, but this was the predetermined plan of God. God offered Him, and He lay down His life, as an atonement for us.

But nowhere in Isaiah (or all of Scripture) is Christ's death presented as appeasing God, or is God presented as punishing Him (or punishing our sins on Him).

 

Than Penal Substitution Theory? Probably. There are many cults out there.

But, as you probably know, until the Reformation it was common Christian belief that Christ's death did not appease God but met the demands of the World. Augustine even stressed that the idea Christ's death appeased God was a strong heresy.

 

Yes, it is a biblical doctrine. And it is true. In Christ there is no condemnation and we do escape the wrath to come.

Scripture says this judgment has been given to Christ (to the Son). He is God. So yes.

 

You are wrong.

Re-read that passage.

Isaiah 53:10 But the Lord was pleased
To crush Him, putting Him to grief;
If He would render Himself as a guilt offering,
He will see His offspring,
He will prolong His days,
And the good pleasure of the Lord will prosper in His hand.

Nowhere does the verse, as you claim, say the Father inflicted pain and suffering on Him. That is your addition to Scripture (and the reason that idea was never held by Christians until the 15th Century).

 

I can help (I've said it over and over again....for your benefit one more time won't hurt).

The theory part (the part you may very well reject, if you are sticking to Scripture) is the false doctrine that God inflicted Christ's suffering and death, that Christ took upon Himself God's wrath, that Christ's death was to appease God, and that God punished Christ (or our sins on Christ) instead of punishing us.

That part is what would make any doctrine of Atonement theoretical and based on human philosophy.

If you call your belief the Doctri e of Penal Substitution while treating the Penal Substitution Theory of Atonement then hood for you....sorry I misjudged your belief.

If, in fact, you do hold as a true doctrine the Penal Substitution Theory of Atonement then perhaps you should re-read Scripture and abandon what is not therein.

 

Yes. Penal Substitution Theory fails on this one as well. Good find.
