August 11, 2013 | Heaven Came Down: The Story of the Cross

Sunday we concluded our series on the atonement of Christ highlighting a series of motifs, or images, used throughout Scripture. We highlighted the orphanage (adoption), the slave quarters (redemption), the battlefield (Christus Victor), the courtroom (justification), and the marketplace (ransom). Though there are many others in Scripture (including the home and the temple), these give us a good overview of what Christ accomplished at the cross.
