Although many in Johannine critical scholarship have argued against viewing Jesus' death as a vicarious atonement (e.g., Bultmann), their arguments have failed to adequately deal with the text of the Fourth Gospel (FG). Morgan-Wynne has recently published a concerted effort to demonstrate that atonement in the FG is indeed vicarious; however, his argumentation can be strengthened. In this discourse, I am arguing that John's understanding of Jesus' death is best seen in light of exodus typology, recognizing Jesus as the climactic fulfillment of exodus and New Exodus figures such as the Passover lamb and the Suffering Servant. Because John chose to portray Jesus in this light, a biblical-theological exegesis which takes these into account will illumine John's understanding of Jesus' death. The goal of this discourse then is to provide such an exegesis, in order to draw out some conclusions about Jesus' death in the FG.

O presente trabalho busca analisar a atuação dos Franciscanos da Reconciliação(Atonement) em São Paulo entre os anos 1977 a 1994. Fundados em 1898 pela iniciativa do então reverendo Episcopal Anglicano Paul James Francis (Pe. Paul Wattson) e da Irmã Lurana White passam a pregar a união entre as Igrejas Católica, Episcopal Anglicana e Ortodoxa Grega. Em 1909 a conversão dos membros ao catolicismo não interrompeu as atividades ecumênicas, que prosseguem mesmo após a morte de Paul Wattson em 1940. Iniciam a Missão no Brasil nas Dioceses de Jataí e Rio Verde (GO) em 1963. Em São Paulo o trabalho teve início no ano de 1977 a convite do então arcebispo de São Paulo D.Paulo Evaristo Arns ampliando o trabalho ecumênico na Arquidiocese. Em 1994 decidiram encerrar sua presença no Brasil. / The objective of the present work is to analyse the ecumenical task performed by Franciscan Friars and Sisters of Atonement in Sao Paulo City in the period from 1977 to 1994. Founded in 1898 by Anglican Episcopal reverend Paul James Francis (Father Paul Wattson) and Mother Lurana White started the movement preaching the union of Catholic, Anglican Episcopal and Greek Orthodox Churches. The conversion of those members to Catholicism in 1909 did not interrupt the ecumenical activities, which continued after the death of Paul Wattson in 1940. They created in 1963 the mission at Jataí and Rio Verde Diocese in Goias State. In Sao Paulo City the action took place in 1977 by invitation of archbishop D. Paulo Evaristo Arns, expanding the ecumenical work inArchdiocese . In 1994 they decided their departure from Brazil.

This thesis examines atonement theology in the Church of Swedens missal (Kyrkohandbok för Svenska kyrkan) published in 2018. By identifying atonement motifs the thesis identifies and discusses which types of atonement theology that dominates the missal. Four subquestions are used to identify and discuss the atonement theology expressed; Why is atonenment needed? What is atonement? How is atonement acheived? Is there potentially problematic aspects of the atonoment theology that is identified? The atonement theology which is identified is mainly of two sorts. The healing process and the atoning obedience.The thesis then tries to handle one such problematic aspect by discussing how to understand the concept of sacrifice which is central to the atoning obedience and by integrating the atonement theology of divinization, theosis, into the understanding of atonement that is dominant in the missal of the Church of Sweden. The thesis argues that properly understood, sacrifice and divinization offers a way forward in order to understand the theology of atonement in a way both true to the christian tradition and and comprehendible to society in the 21st century.
