You made it! We've gone through the theological concept of the penal substitutionary atonement and learned that Jesus' death on the cross was God's way a paying the penalty of sins in our place so that we could be forgiven and at peace with Him again. Today's video is the last in this series and the goal is to see how we can use what we know as we have normal, every day conversations with people.
This is the fifth video in this training series. You can find the previous videos in the links below. You made it!

This is the fourth video in this training series. You can find the previous videos in the links below.
To recap, penal substitutionary atonement is a fancy theological term that answers the question, "What did Jesus do by dying on the cross?" The word penal tells us that His death on the cross was the just penalty for the crime of sin. The word substitutionary tells us that His death was actually paying the penalty for our crimes and sins. Jesus traded places with us sinners. Today's video will focus on the word atonement. This is the third video I've put up to discuss the theological concept of Penal Substitutionary Atonement. If you're just joining in, you can find the INTRO HERE and PART 1: DEFINING PENAL HERE.
As a recap, we have learned that phrases like "Jesus died for your sins" are often misunderstood by non-Christians and not necessarily fully understood by Christians either. Penal Substitutionary Atonement is a theological term used to address the issue of what exactly Jesus' death did. The word Penal is used to convey that His death on the cross was related to the crime of sin and the just penalty for sin which is death. Today's video will hopefully explain the second word: Substitutionary. As I mentioned last week, I've created some training videos for people at my church. You can find my quick intro HERE.
Before you hear what I have to say, take a look at the following Scriptures. I've created a series of videos to use as training for people at my church. These videos cover the theological concept of Penal Substitutionary Atonement. It's a long winded title that addresses the question "What did Jesus do on the cross?" I've put the introduction to the training below. Give it a watch and let me know what you think. It's nothing fancy or super formal, but I'm exploring this type of training. Let me know what you think. I plan on putting up the subsequent videos over the next few Thursdays. Check back in to find them. If you think this is helpful for you, let me know what topics you'd be interested in receiving training in for the future. If this goes well, I may put out training on things like theology, counseling, teaching, evangelism, and who knows what else. Let me know what you think and check back in on Thursday for Part 1: Defining Penal.
