Sophia Forum: Is Christ’s Penal Substitution Unjust?

Posted by: Azusa Pacific Seminary

The most common objection to Christ’s penal substitution is that it is immoral to punish an innocent person for another person’s sins. William Lane Craig, Ph.D., research professor of philosophy at the Talbot School of Theology and professor of philosophy at Houston Baptist University, shows that this seemingly powerful objection is not so powerful.

Craig has authored or edited more than 30 books, including The Kalam Cosmological Argument, Assessing the New Testament Evidence for the Historicity of the Resurrection of Jesus, and Divine Foreknowledge and Human Freedom. In 2016, Craig was named by TheBestSchools.org as one of the 50 most influential living philosophers.
