This weekend, Christians celebrate the most significant event in history — the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Those in other religions and even some professing Christians have called Christ’s sacrifice on the cross “cosmic child abuse”, as in, God violently punished His own Son for the sins of others. They say a “God of love” should and would never do that.
Todd Friel, the host of “Wretched”, a nationally-syndicated radio and television program, will join us this weekend on The Christian Worldview to issue an Easter “PSA”, as in, why the Penal Substitutionary Atonement of Jesus Christ is not cosmic child abuse, but rather the center point of God’s plan to save sinners like you and me.
