Exploring Christology and Atonement

"A fine feast is set by this book. Andrew Purves not only gives us a compelling introduction to three important Scottish theologians, he also puts them in conversation with each other on the central affirmations of the Christian faith. Even more, he makes vividly clear the urgency and gift of theology for the sake of the church. Readers will encounter in this book a vision of deep faithfulness to the gospel. A fine feast, indeed."

"In this fine study, Andrew Purves draws upon his long experience of teaching and reflection to expound the work of three illustrious Scottish theologians-John McLeod Campbell, H. R. Mackintosh and T. F. Torrance. Each stressed the deep connection between the person and work of Christ, both as a corrective to some distortions within the Reformed tradition and also as a recovery of key scriptural and ecumenical insights. Standing foursquare in this tradition, Purves provides an admirable exposition of their work for a contemporary audience."
