Through his death on the cross, Christ atoned for sin and so reconciled people to God. New Testament authors drew upon a range of metaphors and motifs to describe this salvific act, and down through history Christian thinkers have tried to articulate various theories to explain the atonement. While Christ's sacrifice serves as a central tenet of the Christian faith, the mechanism of atonement - exactly how Christ effects our salvation - remains controversial and ambiguous to many Christians.In Atonement and the Death of Christ, William Lane Craig conducts an interdisciplinary investigation of this crucial Christian doctrine, drawing upon Old and New Testament studies, historical theology, and analytic philosophy. The study unfolds in three discrete parts: Craig first explores the biblical basis of atonement and unfolds the wide variety of motifs used to characterize this doctrine. Craig then highlights some of the principal alternative theories of the atonement offered by great Christian thinkers of the premodern era. Lastly, Craig's exploration delves into a constructive and innovative engagement with philosophy of law, which allows an understanding of atonement that moves beyond mystery and into the coherent mechanism of penal substitution.Along the way, Craig enters into conversation with contemporary systematic theories of atonement as he seeks to establish a position that is scripturally faithful and philosophically sound. The result is a multifaceted perspective that upholds the suffering of Christ as a substitutionary, representational, and redemptive act that satisfies divine justice. In addition, this carefully reasoned approach addresses the rich tapestry of Old Testament imagery upon which the first Christians drew to explain how the sinless Christ saved his people from the guilt of their sins.
More than 500 quotes are brought together in this book, showcasing the creative minds of some of the thousands of people who have ordered printed tshirts through the website tshirtcandy.com. Some of the quotes will amuse and startle, but don't forget that each and every one was placed prominently across the front (and occasionally back) of a tshirt for all to see.

Pull up a chair and have a seat at the counsel table. You're going to sit right next to the lawyers in the throes of litigation while they fight off objections from opposing counsel, walk up to the sidebar at the bench to hear what the judges say privately and deal with anxious defendants as they stare down death sentences, long jail terms, big fines, constitutional questions, and large verdicts. You'll have an intimate look through the eyes and ears of a Board-certified civil trial advocate who's been in and around the trenches we're about to visit for nearly forty years. Get ready for a journey back in time to look at a series of famous cases that turned out quite differently than most courtroom watchers predicted while the case wound its way through the court.

This handbook is written for undergraduate sport studies and sport and exercise students. It introduces students to the basic scientific principles that will underpin their learning and is aimed primarily at those who have little or no background in science. Craig Williams and David James apply key scientific concepts to real situations to better understand the principles at work. Clearly divided into three sections, the text covers: * the three physical states of gas, liquid and solid* explanations of forces, energy and electricity - including pressure, torque and joint velocity* data analysis, ICT and report writing - important areas for the scientist. Science for Exercise and Sport provides the student with all the basic scientific background information they need and demonstrates how the theory can be used to map and monitor the human body in the sport and exercise discipline.
