Horace Bushnell's Moral Influence Theory Of The Atonement, Arlin A. Holtz
Horace Bushnell's Moral Influence Theory Of The Atonement, Arlin A. Holtz
Bachelor of Divinity
In the present treatise, it will be our purpose to examine Bushnell’s Moral Influence theory, and observe how the liberal and rationalistic tendencies are reflected in it. Special attention will be given to those teachings which contain error and are closely connected with the Moral Influence view, for example, his teaching on the Trinity, the person of Christ, imputed righteousness, faith, etc. It is our purpose, therefore to present a clear analysis of Bushnell’s theory including the reason for its development and the subsequent implications for modern theology.

Bachelor of Divinity
Our major concern in this thesis is the doctrine of the atonement in New England theology. However, what has gone before is essential to a proper understanding, not only of Edwards' views with regard to the atonement, but also of the men whom he influenced. We shall take up now the study of the doctrine of the atonement according to Edwards. For a proper comprehension of the doctrine, we shall consider it both from the development as suggested by Fisher, and also from the excellent and thorough consideration of the doctrine by Franks.

Substitute theories have been set up, about whose banners theologians have rallied and continue to rally. Such is the situation which calls forth this study of the scriptural doctrine of the atonement, with special reference to the false theories of atonement.
