“...who takes away, not who takes on him,
the sin of the world...” (p. ???).
“He speaks there of His flesh, which He will give for the life of the world,” (p.???).
“But the love of God to the world is never conceived in Scripture abstractly.” (p. ???).
“God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son.” (p. ???).
“And He Himself is a propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world.’” (p. ???).
“The sin of the whole world has been atoned for, as the apostle expressly asserts (2:2); and it is on the basis of this work finished for all, and assumed to underlie everything, that the progressive purification of the Christian proceeds.” (p.???).
“It is an immediate inference, then, from all that we have seen in the New Testament, that where there is no Atonement there is no gospel.” (p. ???).
“But it is this great gospel which is the gospel to win souls — this message of a sin-bearing, sin-expiating love, which pleads for acceptance, which takes the whole responsibility of the sinner unconditionally, with no preliminaries, if only he abandon himself to it. Only the preaching of full salvation now, as Wesley tells us — and who knew better from experience than he? — has any promise in it of revival.” (p. ???).
“Christ did not die for those who were sufficiently penitent. He is the propitiation for the whole world, and He bore the sins of all that all might believe and receive through Him repentance and remission.” (p. ???).
“Christ died for sins once for all, and the man who believes in Christ and in His death has his relation to God once for all determined not by sin but by the Atonement.” (p. ???).
“Rather does the whole phenomenon justify us in putting such a question as Dale’s: What must Christ’s relation to men be in order to make it possible that He should die for them? — a question leading to an essentially evangelical argument, that Christ must have had an original and central relation to the human race and to every member of it.” (p. ???).
“Now the person who first uttered that sublime sentence felt his words fill with meaning as he contemplated Christ sent by God a propitiation for the whole world.” (p. ???).
