“he demonstrates conclusively that the ancient church fathers—from Irenaeus to Augustine (and he could have gone further) believed in and taught substitutionary atonement. It is simply a myth that they taught the Christus Victor or ransom theories instead.” - Roger Olson

Link to the book. (It’s a ‘paid link;’ some pocket change goes to SI if you purchase via the link).
I’m glad to see this book. Craig is more Arminian than I prefer, but he’s almost always a crystal clear thinker and does his homework. I have a bias though: For as long as I can remember, I have believed subsitutionary atonement is the only way to make sense of the New Testament—and the Old, for that matter.
