The idea of Christ's substitutionary atonement for sinners is central in both the Old and New Testaments - from the Passover to the prophets to the words of Jesus and the apostles. In It Is Well, pastors Mark Dever and Michael Lawrence demonstrate how the atonement is clearly taught throughout Scripture.
Starting with Exodus 12 and moving through other key Old Testament passages into the Gospels and the epistles of Paul and Peter, the authors offer careful expositions on fourteen crucial texts. As they speak to important issues such as what happens when there is no substitute for sin, why God forsook Christ, Jesus' perspective on his substitutionary work, and the necessity and benefits of the atonement, they show how much the doctrine applies to the Christian life.
"Theological and devotional, expositional and inspirational: these are four words that well capture this excellent work on the doctrine of penal substitution... Read it and be instructed. Read it and be blessed."?
- Daniel L. Akin, President, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary
