John Murray on Propitiation

Closed Published by Jonathan Dodson May 10th, 2009 on Creation Project

On Sunday we examined the Atonement, lingering on the idea of propitiation from Romans 3:25: “whom God put forward as a propitiation by his blood, to be received by faith.” To “propitiate” is to absorb, appease, or placate.
