Discourses On The Nature And Extent Of The Atonement Of Christ (1843) is a theological book written by Ralph Wardlaw. The book explores the nature and extent of the atonement of Jesus Christ, which is the central doctrine of Christianity. Wardlaw discusses the meaning of atonement and its significance in the Christian faith. He examines the different theories of atonement, including the satisfaction theory, the moral influence theory, and the governmental theory. The author also delves into the question of whether the atonement is limited or unlimited in its scope. Wardlaw argues that the atonement is unlimited in its efficacy, but limited in its extent, meaning that it is sufficient for all but efficient only for the elect. The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to both scholars and lay readers. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the theology of atonement and the central teachings of Christianity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
