Attacks on the doctrine of substitutionary atonement...
Michael Gungor, a musician in the Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) band, Gungor, recently tweeted these tweets:
"I would love to hear more artists who sing to God and fewer who include a Father murdering a son in that endeavor"
"If you can't think of anything to sing to God other than gratitude for taking your shame away through bloodshed, stop singing and look around"
"To see it as literal and out of context- that God needed to be appeased with blood is not beautiful. It's horrific."
"In my view, it's the most evil view of God that it is possible to have."
"What percentage of people still tweeting at me about substitutionary atonement do you think voted for Trump."
"Questioning substitutionary atonement really brings out the 30 year old white dudes in my feed."
I take offense to that last tweet in the sense of where are all the 40 year old white chicks and everyone else? These 30 year old white dudes need some help! :)
By the way, Gungor is a 36 year old white dude himself. lol
