I would argue that only a one-to-one payment (Christ in my place) would serve as an adequate propitiation. I don't mean to be irreverent here, but you are suggesting that God is appeased by something else, like a Twix Bar perhaps, which distracts Him and gets Him out of His grumpy mood.

What makes and act "sin" is that it violates God's covenant. Is eating fruit a sinful act for you or me?

What is sin? Or, why is sin, wrong/bad?

Charles Finney is alive and well, it seems.
