Salvation (And How We Got It Wrong)

What if everything you’ve been told about salvation is wrong? For nearly a thousand years Christians have been hearing and repeating a story about why Jesus died on the cross. It’s the only story of salvation most of them have ever heard. And it’s wrong. The Bible doesn’t have that story and the early Christians never heard that story - they never believed it. In Salvation (and how we got it wrong), Kenneth Myers revisits the story of our salvation, retelling it like the early Christians told it. No longer a tale of an angry God punishing his Son in payment for crimes against his honor, it becomes a tale of a loving God doing all in his power to bring healing to a humanity he desperately cares for.

Cleared up so many questions!

This book Cleared up so many biblical questions that have plagued me for years! Oh my what a wonderful find! Seriously Thank You so very much. My unanswered question now is being convinced of the Eastern Orthodox view, where do I go to church in the Mid south USA?

Anti-PSA but not convincing

The audio quality was impressive for AI, except for the pauses during the extended quote from Isaiah. I assume it's because it's indented in the original.

The format of dialectical correspondence was interesting and engaging. I think it's safe to assume this was a real correspondence, but the student was such a novice, it felt like a strawman. God does have anger with sinners. And based on the words of Jesus and 1 John, God is not our Father if we haven't been redeemed.

What does God's love consist in? For those outside of Christ, it's generosity, kindness, patience, and the sincere free offer of the gospel. God's favor is defined by its exclusivity.

I do need a different kind of Christianity, a living one, but this is not it. And this helps me to see that I too am running the risk of committing to a false understanding of Scripture. I need to be careful. Many will be deceived, and few will be saved.

Excellent refutation of PSA

The subject is covered in fairly good detail and depth without getting bogged down. Short and to the point.
