Gustaf Aulen's classic work, 'Christus Victor', has long been a standard text on the atonement. Aulen applies "history of ideas' methodology to historical theology in tracing the development of three views of the atonement. Aulen asserts that in traditional histories of the doctrine of the atonement only two views have usually been presented, the objective/Anselmian and the subjective/Aberlardian views. According to Aulen, however, there is another type of atonement doctrine in which Christ overcomes the hostile powers that hold humanity in subjection, at the same time that God in Christ reconciles the world to Himself. This view he calls the "classic" idea of the atonement. Because of its predominance in the New Testament, in patristic writings, and in the theology of Luther, Aulen holds that the classic type may be called the distinctively Christian idea of the atonement.

In this book Martyn Smith addresses the issue of God's violence and refuses to shy away from difficult and controversial conclusions. Through his wide-ranging and measured study he reflects upon God and violence in both biblical and theological contexts, assessing the implications of divine violence for understanding and engaging with God's nature and character. Jesus too, through his dramatic actions in the temple, is presented as one capable of exhibiting a surprising degree of violent behavior in the furtherance of God's purposes. Through a reappropriation of the ancient Christus Victor model of atonement, with its dramatic representation of God's war with the Satan, Smith proposes that Christian understanding of both God and salvation has to return to its long-neglected past in order to move forward, both biblically and dynamically, into the future.

Dr. Aulén is Professor of Systematic Theology in the University of Lund, and this book is a translation of the Olaus Petri Lectures delivered by him before the University of Uppsala in March and April, 1930. The same lectures were also delivered in Germany in September, 1930, in a much condensed form, the eight lectures being brought down to three, with the title of Die drei Haupttypen des christlichen Versöhnungsgedankens, and were published in Zeitschrift für systematische Theologie, 1930, pp. 501-538.This book is strictly an historical study; it contains no personal statement of belief or theory of the Atonement. Its important and original contribution is its strong delineation of the view of the Atonement which is summed up in such phrases as 'Christus Victor,' and 'God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself'-the view that sets the Incarnation in direct connection with the Atonement, and proclaims that it is God Himself who in Christ has delivered mankind from the power of evil. As soon as the meaning of this view is grasped, the patristic teaching at once stands out as a strong, clear, and consistent whole, and it becomes impossible to doubt that it is this view which also dominates the New Testament; it has therefore every right to be called the typical Christian view, or, in Dr. Aulén's phrase, the 'classic' idea of the Atonement. Evidently, too, it is to be distinguished from the view which grew up in the West on the basis of the forensic idea of sin as transgression of law, and which received its first clear formulation from Anselm; for that view regards the Atonement as not in the full sense God's work, but rather as the act whereby man in Christ makes reparation for man's sin. Dr. Aulén proceeds to show that Luther revived the classic idea of the Atonement with mighty power, but that Luther's successors went back to the forensic view, which thus came to dominate orthodox Protestantism; and that the theologians of the 'subjective' or exemplarist view, which arose to challenge the accepted forensic theory, so far from returning to the classic idea, diverged from it still further, and concentrated their whole attention on the psychological process of man's reformation. Dr. Aulén closes with the hopeful expectation that we shall yet see the classic idea of the Atonement return in its strength; for with all his restraint, he cannot conceal where his own sympathies lie.

"Recapturing a theology of spiritual warfare for the twenty-first century will be strategic to the realization of God's kingdom on earth." The earliest Christians completely understood the work of Jesus on the cross and his exaltation to the right hand of God. The triumph of Jesus Christ over the principalities and powers is known as Christus Victor, and it serves as the basis for authority in spiritual warfare. Once again, the church needs to be reminded as to the nature of the spiritual realm, how it operates and become equipped to adequately deal with it so that the church might have the optimum conditions for success. If the church today is to fulfill its mission and truly be relevant, it must revisit and teach the theology of Christus Victor so that Christians will have the spiritual equipment they need in order to counter the elemental forces, which seek to shape culture and remake our world. Cinda L. Swan has written a cogent apologetic on spiritual warfare for the twenty-first century Church. Christus Victor is a deeply theological-yet imminently practical book that will forever impact your ministry and shape your world view. If you want to grow disciples and unleash lasting transformation in your family, church and community, Christus Victor will help orient you in the right direction regarding teaching and practicing the principles of spiritual warfare for any successful ministry endeavor. Discussion questions are included at the end of each chapter for group study. Cinda L. Swan is an ordained minister in the United Methodist church. She teaches in the Christian Ministries department at Lindsey Wilson College in Columbia, Kentucky.
