Traditional theories are only concerned with benefits for man, but as Dr. Lloyd-Jones shows in this exposition of Romans 3:25-26, the cross of Christ was above all a vindication of God’s holy character.
"This is an essential part of the glorious gospel. At Calvary, God made a way of salvation so that you and I could be forgiven. But He had to do it in such a way that His character remained inviolable, that His eternal consistency remained absolute and unshakeable. Once one begins to contemplate a subject like this, one realizes that this is the most tremendous, the most glorious, the most astonishing thing in the universe and in all human history."
