I have attached this very excellent critique of PSA from a chap I bumped into on Jesus Creed who was saying some very intelligent things about the Atonement. There were a very few statements he made in the course of making his arguments that I wasn’t sure that I agreed with, but these were somewhat tangential to his actual arguments, which I thought were well thought-out/ articulated and clearly presented. I have noted in the document itself those locations by either bolding and/ or adding a question mark to the end of the statements I questioned.
I am actually quite surprised he is not a universalist, but he does at least hold out some hope of the possibility of post-mortem repentance and salvation (though he does not go into this in the article).
This is an excellent read, and worth the time to sit down and read its 13 pages on why the Scripture presents a Restitution vs. a Retributive model of Atonement.
