Exploring the concept of atonement, Michael Gorman critiques existing models for neglecting the "new-covenant" perspective, which he posits as foundational to early Christian thought. He emphasizes that many interpretations focus too heavily on the mechanics of Jesus' death rather than its ultimate goal: fostering a transformed, Spirit-filled community. Gorman highlights the coherence among New Testament metaphors, presenting Jesus' death as the fulfillment of prophetic promises and the establishment of a covenant of peace that shapes a new community of believers.
