according to Man, RC, Piper, Calvin and many other calvinists the Father put the Son to death- ie killed him. I started a thread on that very topic here with plenty of quotes as evidence.
Calvinists teach the Father KILLED the Son so I will quote a few famous ones for you proving what Calvinists actually believe and teach.
MacArthur in the gospel according to God says :
We must remember that sin did not kill Jesus; God did. The suffering servants death was nothing less than a punishment administered by God for the sins committed by others.
Piper says in the passion of the Christ :
The ultimate question to who killed Jesus is God did. Its a staggering thought . Jesus was His Son.
Grudem in his Systematic Theology :
As Jesus bore the guilt of our sin alone,God the Father, the Almighty Creator, the Lord of the universe, poured out on Jesus the fury of his wrath: Jesus became the object of the intense hatred of sin and vengeance against sin which God had patiently stored up since the beginning of the world.
Calvin says in his commentary on Gal 3:13 :
"He could not cease to be the object of his Father’s love, and
yet he endured his wrath. For how could he reconcile the Father to us, if
he had incurred his hatred and displeasure? We conclude, that he “did always those things that pleased” (
John 8:29) his Father. Again, how would he have freed us from
the wrath of God, if he had not transferred it from us to himself? Thus, “he was wounded for our transgressions,” (
Isaiah 53:5,) and had to deal with
God as an angry judge."
And we know Jesus and the Apostles did not teach the Father killed the Son but the Jews killed Him on the cross.
