Summary: | This paper. explores the shifting patterns An evangelical soteriology. In particular it suggests that continual encounter with God in worship has replaced conversion as the primary focus of evangelical spirituality. At the same time evangelicals have continued to preach a substitutionary soteriology. This soteriology does not adequately fund, interpret, or fuel the contemporary charismatic practice of encounter with God in worship. It is suggested that ideas of Union with Christ might be used to offer a more robust and functional doctrine of salvation. |
