Salvation As a Mechanical Process

Theology

“This daring book will jolt thoughtful readers theologically and methodologically. Davies, not shy about dismantling some longstanding Christian views of Jesus’ death, points to ‘the cosmic significance of the execution of Jesus’ and questions whether ‘blood atonement’ is still necessary for Christian theology. His innovative use of copious photographs (his own!) to illustrate Roman and early Christian thinking makes the narrative all the more alluring.”
