Would be interesting to see what people are up to.

I know @Johann is working his way through William Lane Craig's Atonement and the Death of Christ: An Exegetical, Historical, and Philosophical Exploration.


I'm very interested in that work someday.

I'm currently reading Adam, the Fall, and Original Sin: Theological, Biblical, and Scientific Perspectives. It's very thorough historically.


Just finished Precious Blood: The Atoning Work of Christ, which I thought was excellent outside of the one Calvinistic chapter.

Correct-and William Graig's book is available in PDF format-is Precious Blood: The Atoning Work of Christ available in PDF format?
Thanks brother.

Adam seems today a figment of ancient imagination. His ghost still haunts the
edifice of original sin, but the Augustinian structure is falling apart, crumbling,
gone with the wind. Emil Brunner linked its underlying patristic picture of time
and space with the centaur of mythology, something like a Brothers Grimm
fairy tale; such notions, he wrote, have “irrevocably been swept away, even
for the most orthodox people.”1
A!rming Adam’s historicity in the twentyfirst century is thus a quaint, but hopeless, attempt “to place the Augustinian
‘Adam in Paradise’ in a post-Copernican world.” Of course, we can choose to
defend the traditional Adamic narrative with the careful rhetoric of anxiety ridden theological guardians, but all that noise is pathetically “quixotic and
reactionary”—much ado about nothing.2
So goes the diagnosis of Brunner,
a faithful spokesperson for modern theology. After Darwin the doctrines of
the fall and original sin have become simply incredible for many people today.
What is perhaps surprising is that even evangelicals are increasingly losing
faith in these classical doctrines. They are looking for new ways to make sense
of Adam in Scripture.

Adam,
the Fall,
and Original Sin
Theological, Biblical,
and Scientific Perspectives-

This one?

Okay, I understand.

You can't transfer files from your PC in this manner, but I get the idea now.

This was not from a legitimate site.
Whether the site was legit or no-I have Craig's work on the Atonement-I think it is the same as yours-the link.
God bless brother.

There are legal and illegal ways to obtain books in cyberspace. Just because something can be dismissed for “ free” does t make it legal or ethical.

Well, well-I am blissfully unaware of that-but I do have the book-and reading it.
