Digital Logos Edition
The atonement lies at the very center of the Christian faith. The free and sovereign love of God is the source of the accomplishment of redemption, as the Bible’s familiar text (John 3:16) makes clear.
For thoughtful Christians since the time of the Apostle Paul, this text has started, not ended, the discussion of redemption. Yet few recent interpreters have explored in depth the biblical passages dealing with the atonement as penetratingly or precisely as John Murray, who, until his death in 1975, was regarded by many as the foremost conservative theologian in the English speaking world.
In this enduring study of the atonement, Murray systematically explains the two sides of redemption: its accomplishment by Christ and its application to the life of the redeemed. In part one, Murray considers the necessity, nature, perfection, and extent of the atonement. In part two, Murray offers careful expositions of the scriptural teaching about calling, regeneration, faith and repentance, justification, adoption, sanctification, perseverance, union with Christ, and glorification.
In the Logos edition, Redemption Accomplished and Applied is enhanced by amazing functionality.

“The love of God from which the atonement springs is not a distinctionless love; it is a love that elects and predestinates. God was pleased to set his invincible and everlasting love upon a countless multitude and it is the determinate purpose of this love that the atonement secures.” (Page 10)
“The more we emphasize the inflexible demands of justice and holiness the more marvellous become the love of God and its provisions.” (Page 18)
“Nothing is more central or basic than union and communion with Christ.” (Page 161)
“Why did God become man? Why, having become man, did he die? Why, having died, did he die the accursed death of the cross? This is the question of the necessity of the atonement.” (Page 11)
“By adoption the redeemed become sons and daughters of the Lord God Almighty; they are introduced into and given the privileges of God’s family.” (Page 132)

John Murray (1898–1975) studied at the University of Glasgow following his service in the British Army in the First World War. Following his acceptance as a theological student of the Free Presbyterian Church of Scotland, he pursued further studies at Princeton Theological Seminary under J. Gresham Machen and Geerhardus Vos, but broke with the Free Presbyterian Church in 1930 over that Church’s treatment of the Chesley, Ontario congregation. He taught at Princeton for a year and then lectured in systematic theology at Westminster Theological Seminary from 1930 to 1966, and was an early trustee of the Banner of Truth Trust. Murray preached at Chesley and Lochalsh from time to time until his retirement from Westminster Theological Seminary in 1968.
