The Nature of God in the Atonement

[Dizerner]

I don’t reject Christs atonement for my sins

You are redefining the atonement away from the Biblical description as enlightened by the Spirit.

You know Annihilationists say "I don't reject hell, I just think hell is ceasing to exist."

Redefining a word to say you then believe in that word is redefining the concept behind it.

If Jesus was substituted as a ransom for your soul, then Jesus must experience what your soul deserved, that's real atonement.

All the objections here I've already dealt with, it doesn't break up the Trinity, it's always been in the Bible, even the early church preached it (which is irrelevant to the Bible but it did), Scripture does say Jesus saves us from the wrath of God, God alone is the judge and not man, and on and on hundreds of times with no actual dealing with any of it.

There is no way this much truth has come for this long and the Holy Spirit has not been in some way directly resisted.

So I cannot do more, as I am merely the messenger boy, but as much as I believe in God and Jesus and the Bible and everything I lived and suffered and hoped for, and invested my entire life in, I will live and die preaching and believing and cleaving to the Biblical Gospel and clear truth that the Lord did indeed lay on Jesus the iniquity of us all who became our sin and the Father was pleased to crush him and he saves us from the wrath to come by suffering the Just for the unjust what our sins deserve.

Here I stand, I can do no other, and if I am jumping and screaming and waving my arms to a person in real danger, and they just ignore it and stubbornly drive on through, then we can both admit they really deserve what they have coming with no excuses.

I wouldn't have even kept at it this long if I wasn't an extremely compassionate person.

But enough is enough, and there is a line that gets crossed.

There is no truth in wrath from Father to Son it’s unbiblical.

This topic was the biggest thread the old forum most of us here were on where I started this topic. Since then most posters have left that forum and 2 of us started our own forums. Here is that thread and since then I have much more research and study time on the topic that is on the OP here on BAM. @TomL @TibiasDad @praise_yeshua @Administrator @Predestined @Presby02 @Bob Carabbio @Rockson @JoshebB @Joe @PeanutGallery @sethproton and many others will remember.

Did Jesus bear Gods wrath and was He forsaken ?

Psalm 22 My God, my God, why have You forsaken me? Far from my deliverance are the words of my [c]groaning. 2 O my God, I cry by day, but You do not answer; And by night, but I have no rest. 3 Yet You are holy, O You who are enthroned upon the praises of Israel. 4 In You our fathers trusted...

No, he was not forsaken.

Psalm 22:24 (NASB95) — 24 For He has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; Nor has He hidden His face from him; But when he cried to Him for help, He heard.

Hebrews 5:6–7 (LEB) — 6 just as also in another place he says, “You are a priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek,” 7 who in the days of his flesh offered up both prayers and supplications, with loud crying and tears, to the one who was able to save him from death, and he was heard as a result of his reverence.

2 Corinthians 5:18–19 (LEB) — 18 And all these things are from God, who has reconciled us to himself through Christ, and who has given us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation.

Amen brother to the truth about our great God.

Amen brother to the truth about our great God.

Hard to see how a Trinity doctrine can be maintained if one member punishes the other, One pours wrath out on the other and then forsakes the other

And according to some, Christ is no longer pure and is damned by the father and becomes an anathema to him

And your summary above tells it all regarding the Tri- Unity of our God. The doctrine is heretical.

This especially so

[praise_yeshua]

Leave him be @Dizerner-- he is not practicing what he is preaching.

J.

I'm curious by just what authority do you even dare says such a thing? Do you have any power whatsoever over anything?

 

[praise_yeshua]

Step a little further into these facts and make the "small leap" in believing that what Adam and Eve did actually damned all of humanity.

Man forgetting God to the point of denying God's very existence...... add the manifestation of Holy Trinity in agreement in Incarnated Christ, the Son of God.....

The Atonement both frees sinners and damn's Christ rejecters.

Makes you feel better... right? That God would become as dirty as you are..... Right?

That is pride associated with such beliefs that easy manifest themselves in hatred for sinners that do the same things everyone does. It is the very core of hypocrisy.

PSA is full of pride and self worth for sin.

All the objections here I've already dealt with, it doesn't break up the Trinity, it's always been in the Bible, even the early church preached it (which is irrelevant to the Bible but it did), Scripture does say Jesus saves us from the wrath of God, God alone is the judge and not man, and on and on hundreds of times with no actual dealing with any of it.

Wrath is revealed from heaven against who????

Rom 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
Rom 1:19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
Rom 1:20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

There is some semblance of wrath found in death but not for saints. Such is described by the faithful as "falling asleep". God said the death of His saints was precious to Him.

There is no way this much truth has come for this long and the Holy Spirit has not been in some way directly resisted.

Why? You've being resisting the Spirit of God your entire life. I have too. Nothing new for any of us. Thank God he isn't like men that demand vengeance.

So I cannot do more, as I am merely the messenger boy, but as much as I believe in God and Jesus and the Bible and everything I lived and suffered and hoped for, and invested my entire life in, I will live and die preaching and believing and cleaving to the Biblical Gospel and clear truth that the Lord did indeed lay on Jesus the iniquity of us all who became our sin and the Father was pleased to crush him and he saves us from the wrath to come by suffering the Just for the unjust what our sins deserve.

You're reading what faithless Jews wanted you to read. Nothing more.

Here I stand, I can do no other, and if I am jumping and screaming and waving my arms to a person in real danger, and they just ignore it and stubbornly drive on through, then we can both admit they really deserve what they have coming with no excuses.

I wouldn't have even kept at it this long if I wasn't an extremely compassionate person.

But enough is enough, and there is a line that gets crossed.

You've been doing this for you. If you've finally decided to cleave to PSA the remainder of your life, then that is your choice.

Little to do with the difficulties created within the Godhead. PSA is simply not the only atonement theory

Ideas such as Christ was pure no more, was damned by the Father, and became anathema are simply unbiblical. Further the idea Christ was propitiating the Father in the atonement, that the Father could not forgive and had to be appeased by pouring out his wrath upon Christ I also do not see as biblical

 

[Dizerner]

PSA is simply not the only atonement theory

Just because there is a "Jesus eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich atones for your sins" theory doesn't mean it should be considered seriously. There is only ONE Biblical theory of the atonement, Christ suffered for your sins, the Just for the unjust.

Ideas such as Christ was pure no more, was damned by the Father, and became anathema are simply unbiblical.

Lies and demonic deception. The Father was pleased to crush him and he who knew no sin become sin. No, the word is "sin" and not "sin offering," since the word for sin offering is actually just "sin" because the identification was so close. You've just been fed a pile of lies and swallowed them all.

Further the idea Christ wa propitiating the Father in the atonement, that the Father could not forgive and had to be appeased by pouring out his wrath upon Christ I also do not see as biblical

Lies. The Law of God demands the punishment of sin, and he will by no means acquit the guilty, the price of the soul is too high. The Law of God is not bypassed, ignored, set aside, swept under the rug, or thrown out, the Law is completely and utterly fullfiled on the Cross, every single sin you've EVER committed DEMANDS from the Law of God based on his holiness that it not be IGNORED, and that is the whole purpose Jesus was made THE CURSE YOU DESERVE. Your stubbornness and pride has rejected the very CORE of the Gospel while your zeal wants to correct everyone else's mistakes you display NO HUMILITY to look at your own. I urge you to consider how deeply you are deceived and to look honestly at yourself for once. There is only limited time, and so many times the Spirit can be resisted. This is not "one guy's opinion against another," this is the Gospel being preached.

Well we have 80 plus instances in the greek septuagint where harmatia is translated sin offering. Also in the hebrew

Verse 21. For he hath made him to be sin for us] Τον μη γνοντα ἁμαρτιαν, ὑπερ ἡμων ἁμαρτιαν εποιησεν· He made him who knew no sin, (who was innocent,) a sin-offering for us. The word ἁμαρτια occurs here twice: in the first place it means sin, i. e. transgression and guilt; and of Christ it is said, He knew no sin, i. e. was innocent; for nut to know sin is the same as to be conscious of innocence; so, nil conscire sibi, to be conscious of nothing against one’s self, is the same as nulla pallescere culpa, to be unimpeachable.

In the second place, it signifies a sin-offering, or sacrifice for sin, and answers to the חטאה‎ chattaah and חטאת‎ chattath of the Hebrew text; which signifies both sin and sin-offering in a great variety of places in the Pentateuch. The Septuagint translate the Hebrew word by ἁμαρτια in ninety-four places in Exodus, Leviticus, and Numbers, where a sin-offering is meant; and where our version translates the word not sin, but an offering for sin. Had our translators attended to their own method of translating the word in other places where it means the same as here, they would not have given this false view of a passage which has been made the foundation of a most blasphemous doctrine; viz. that our sins were imputed to Christ, and that he was a proper object of the indignation of Divine justice, because he was blackened with imputed sin; and some have proceeded so far in this blasphemous career as to say, that Christ may be considered as the greatest of sinners, because all the sins of mankind, or of the elect, as they say, were imputed to him, and reckoned as his own1

1 Adam Clarke, The Holy Bible with a Commentary and Critical Notes (vol. 6, New Edition.; Bellingham, WA: Faithlife Corporation, 2014), 338–339.

Christ was always pure

Hebrews 9:14 (LEB) — 14 how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, cleanse our consciences from dead works to serve the living God?

1 Peter 1:19 (LEB) — 19 but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of an unblemished and spotless lamb

Hebrews 7:26 (LEB) — 26 For a high priest such as this indeed is fitting for us, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, and having become exalted above the heavens,


Had christ actually become sin his blood would not have been without blemish.

And when the days of the banquet were finished, Job sent and purified them, rising up each morning and offering for them a sacrifice according to their number, one calf for a sin-offering for their lives—for Job said, “In case my sons have thought evil things in their minds toward God.” So Job acted all the days.

Lies. The Law of God demands the punishment of sin, and he will by no means acquit the guilty, the price of the soul is too high. The Law of God is not bypassed, ignored, set aside, swept under the rug, or thrown out, the Law is completely and utterly fullfiled on the Cross, every single sin you've EVER committed DEMANDS from the Law of God based on his holiness that it not be IGNORED, and that is the whole purpose Jesus was made THE CURSE YOU DESERVE. Your stubbornness and pride has rejected the very CORE of the Gospel while your zeal wants to correct everyone else's mistakes you display NO HUMILITY to look at your own. I urge you to consider how deeply you are deceived and to look honestly at yourself for once. There is only limited time, and so many times the Spirit can be resisted. This is not "one guy's opinion against another," this is the Gospel being preached.

So you believe Christ was transformed into sin. He was no longer man or God and the trinity was now split.

And scripture when it stated

Hebrews 9:14 (LEB) — 14 how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, cleanse our consciences from dead works to serve the living God?

1 Peter 1:19 (LEB) — 19 but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of an unblemished and spotless lamb

Hebrews 7:26 (LEB) — 26 For a high priest such as this indeed is fitting for us, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, and having become exalted above the heavens,


was simply wrong

And you believe that orthodox?

Just because there is a "Jesus eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich atones for your sins" theory doesn't mean it should be considered seriously. There is only ONE Biblical theory of the atonement, Christ suffered for your sins, the Just for the unjust.



Lies and demonic deception. The Father was pleased to crush him and he who knew no sin become sin. No, the word is "sin" and not "sin offering," since the word for sin offering is actually just "sin" because the identification was so close. You've just been fed a pile of lies and swallowed them all.

Nope Jesus forgave the women caught in adultery that the " LAW " said to stone. On another occasion we see that the sins of a paralyzed man are forgiven on account of the faith of those who brought him to Jesus.

So much for your lies false accusation. There are many other examples in both testaments of God forgiving sin.

The fact is the lies come from the false teachings of PSA .

When we study Jesus teachings about the Kingdom of God we discover its not about justice, retribution, retaliation etc........

Matthew 5:38-48
38“You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’ But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also.
40 And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well.
41 If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles.
42 Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.
43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’
44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,
45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.
46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that?
47 And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that?
48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.

The Parable of the Lost son- the son did not get what he deserved from the Father but welcomed him back into the family. There was no justice served to the wayward son that returned.

The Parable of the laborers in the vineyard- the ones who came late received the same wages as the ones who worked all day. They received more than they deserved- what is just Matthew 20:4. In both of these we see the Father who is merciful, forgiving not punishing and dishing out justice- what they deserved under the law. By the standards of their day it was an injustice for those who worked a couple of hours being paid the same wages as the ones who worked all day.

Jesus even on the cross suffering more than can be humanly imagined reveals the very heart of God which is not justice, retribution, vengeance, wrath, anger but its LOVE- Father forgive them for they know not what they do. And today He said to the criminal you will be with Me in paradise. We see Gods love, mercy and forgiveness demonstrated not His justice on the cross which coincides with Jesus teachings on the Kingdom.

Jesus on the cross reveals the very heart of God, the heart of Gods Kingdom.

I like Paul can say- the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing. 1 Corinthians 1:18-19
For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.”

The calvinists have the cross all wrong and have turned it upside down. PSA is an assault on our Gods nature and character.

For the record, @TomL, I do not believe that the Messiah "became sin" in a literal or ontological sense; however, I do fully affirm the penal aspect of His atoning work.


First: Isaiah 53 - "made sin" concept - Hebrew Verbs
In Isaiah 53, the concept that relates to "becoming sin" is primarily found in two key Hebrew verbs:

Isaiah 53:6 —Isa 53:6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own derech (way; see Prov 16:25); and Hashem hath laid on him [Moshiach] the avon (iniquity, the guilt that separates from G-d) of us all.

Text: וַֽיהוָה הִפְגִּיעַ בּוֹ אֵת עֲוֹן כֻּלָּנוּ

Transliteration: vayhwh hipgîaʿ bô ʾet ʿavon kullanu

Translation: "and YHWH has laid on Him the iniquity of us all."

Hebrew Verb: הִפְגִּיעַ (hipgîaʿ) — root פָּגַע (pāgaʿ)

Morphology: Hiphil (causative) perfect 3rd masculine singular

Meaning: In the hiphil stem, pāgaʿ can mean "to cause to meet," "to intercede," "to burden," or even "to strike upon."

Force: YHWH caused the iniquity of all to strike against or encounter Him; this sets the background for substitution.

Isaiah 53:10 —Isa 53:10 Yet it pleased Hashem to bruise him; He hath put him to suffering; when Thou shalt make his nefesh an asham offering for sin, he (Moshiach) shall see zera [see Psalm 16 and Yn 1:12 OJBC], He shall prolong his yamim (days) and the chefetz Hashem (pleasure, will of Hashem) shall prosper in his [Moshiach's] hand.

an offering for sin. Hebrew. 'aham = the trespass offering. Ref to Pentateuch, for this is a peculiarly Levitical word (Lev_14:12, Lev_14:21), and cannot be understood apart from it. In Psa 40 it is the aspect of the whole burnt offering.

'asham , trespass , to sin through error or ignorance. Cp. Lev_4:13; Lev_5:2-3. Num_5:6-7. Jdg_21:22. 1Ch_21:3. 2Ch_19:10; 2Ch_28:10; 2Ch_28:13. 'Asham is a breach of commandment, done in ignorance, but, when the guilt is proved, requiring atonement.

Text: וַֽיהוָה חָפֵץ דַּכְּאוֹ הֶחֱלִי

Transliteration: vayhwh ḥafeṣ dakkəʾô heḥĕlî

Translation: "Yet it pleased the LORD to crush Him; He has put Him to grief."

Hebrew Verbs:

דַּכְּאוֹ (dakkəʾô) — root דָּכָא (dākāʾ)

Morphology: Piel infinitive construct + 3rd masculine singular suffix ("to crush him")

Meaning: "to crush, to break" (violent injury; intensive action in Piel). Penal-that's how I read it brother.

הֶחֱלִי (heḥĕlî) — root חָלָה (ḥālāh)

Morphology: Hiphil perfect 3rd masculine singular ("He caused to be sick").

Meaning: "to cause illness, to wound, to weaken."

Thus, Isaiah 53 uses the language of causing to bear guilt, crushing, and causing sickness - heavy judicial and penal imagery - not the literal "becoming sin" as substance but bearing sin as guilt or penalty.

Second: 2 Corinthians 5:21 — "made Him to be sin" — Greek Verbs
When we move to the New Testament, Paul echoes Isaiah 53 in 2 Corinthians 5:21:

2 Corinthians 5:21

Text: Τὸν γὰρ μὴ γνόντα ἁμαρτίαν ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν ἁμαρτίαν ἐποίησεν

Transliteration: Ton gar mē gnonta hamartian hyper hēmōn hamartian epoiēsen

Translation: "For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us."

Greek Verb: ἐποίησεν (epoiēsen) — root ποιέω (poieō)

Morphology: aorist active indicative 3rd person singular

Meaning: "to make, to do, to cause."

Force: God "made" Christ "sin" (ἁμαρτία, hamartia)-but notice that in Greek, ἁμαρτία (hamartia) can mean both sin and sin-offering depending on the context (especially under Septuagintal influence, e.g., Leviticus 4:24 LXX).

Thus, Paul’s phrase is intentionally deep: God "made" (ποιέω) Christ, who was sinless, to be sin or a sin offering for our sake - resonating with the sacrificial logic of Isaiah 53.

Third: Key Points from Hebrew and Greek Comparison

In Isaiah 53, the verbs describe God's causal action upon the Servant: He lays guilt, crushes, causes sickness- forensic, penal, substitutionary.

In 2 Corinthians 5:21, the verb ποιέω (to make) stresses divine initiative - God constitutes Christ as bearing the legal penalty of sin for others.

Neither Isaiah nor Paul suggests that Christ ontologically became sin itself (as if His nature changed); rather, He was reckoned, treated, or offered as the one bearing sin's penalty.

Little to do with the difficulties created within the Godhead. PSA is simply not the only atonement theory

Ideas such as Christ was pure no more, was damned by the Father, and became anathema are simply unbiblical. Further the idea Christ was propitiating the Father in the atonement, that the Father could not forgive and had to be appeased by pouring out his wrath upon Christ I also do not see as biblical

Yes the heresies about God pile up on each other in the PSA " theory" .

Was the cross a punishment God inflicted on Jesus? One verse that is used to teach that it was is Isaiah 53:10. Isaiah 53 is about the Suffering Servant, who is understood to be Messiah. This passage, then, is understood by the Church to be about the cross and the atonement. Let’s read it, first, in the New International Version, which is in agreement with most other English versions.

Yet it was the LORD’s will to crush him and cause him to suffer. (NIV)

Other versions have it similarly: “Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise Him; He has put Him to grief” (New King James Version). “And Jehovah hath delighted to bruise him, He hath made him sick” (Young’s Literal Translation). “Yet it was the will of the LORD to crush him; he has put him to grief” (English Standard Version).

Was the cross really about God crushing Jesus, bruising him, making him sick? I used to think so, and this was a verse I used to teach that. I taught that Jesus took God’s punishment in our place, that God crushed Jesus, venting his anger on him so he would not have to vent it on us. This is known as thepenal substitutionary theory of atonement. In recent years, however, I have had to let that theory go, because what I have seen in Scripture leads me to a different conclusion, a different understanding of the cross.

So what about Isaiah 53:10, then? Are the English versions quoted above the best rendering of Isaiah’s words? They are direct translations of the Hebrew text, at least of the best one that is available today, but do they give us the best sense of what Isaiah prophesied?

The Septuagint renders Isaiah 53:10. I could give you the Greek words themselves, which would be a simple cut and paste, but since many do not read Greek, I will quote the Brenton version, which is a classic English translation of the LXX. Then I will tell you about the Greek verb that is used:

The Lord also is pleased to purge him from his stroke. (Brenton)

The Greek word for “stroke” is plege and here speaks of a wound that has been inflicted by a blow. The verb for “purge” is katharizo and means to cleanse or purify. It is where we get our English word “catharsis.” The St. Athanasius Academy Septuagintversion has Isaiah 53:10 this way: “The Lord wishes to cleanse Him of His wound.”

The important thing to notice here is that God does not crush or bruise the Messiah, or make him sick. God does not inflict any wound on him. Quite the opposite, God is shown as cleansing and healing the wound!

The LXX reading seems to me more like what I find in the New Testament concerning the cross. When I think, for example, of how Peter and Stephen preached the gospel in the book of Acts, the cross was not something God did to Christ but something wicked men did. What God did was to raise Christ from the dead.

Isaiah 53 presents a stunning image of what Christ suffered in the atonement. But I do not think it is a picture of God crushing, bruising or punishing Christ.It is a portrait of God delivering Christ — and us through him. J,Doles
