Philip Hess Why did Jesus die? You may be surprised to learn that the meaning of Jesus’ death as taught by many Christians is a fairly modern development in church history. Penal Substitution, the idea that Jesus died to take our punishment and receive the wrath of God in our place, has little support in Scripture and was not the understanding of the early Church.

This book has been what I have been waiting for regarding Penal Substitution. Philip does a Great job explaining what Jesus actually accomplished on the cross and how the blood saves us. His book is very easy to read and understand, I will defiantly be reading it again. Thanks
