The subject is notable and the article should not be deleted. Aulen's work, Christus Victor, greatly shook up the way modern Christian theologians think about the atonement, and the title of the work has become a theological term in its own right. Aulen has an entry in the Evangelical Dictionary of Theology, 1st ed., Walter A. Elwell, ed. (p. 107), a very significant reference work.

I will contribute to the article if I have time. Sorry if I did anything wrong; this is my first post on Wikipedia.Sean Babu 11:39, 11 October 2007 (UTC)


Perhaps this article should be fixed, but it definitely should not be deleted. Aulen's work was an important contribution to the understanding of Christian thinking on models of atonement. Steve Baskauf 12:14, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
