Thomas F. Torance argues that St. Paul teaches that God has truly
dealt with sin and guilt, and thus brought forth the new creation,
by Christ coming in the likeness of sinful flesh to condemn sin in
the flesh. Thus, I argue that Torrance's soteriological doctrine of
ontological healing provides the Church with a profound and radical
way of understanding the biblical teaching that Christ condemned
sin in the flesh, by making evident the intrinsic relationship
between the incarnation and atonement. Furthermore, Torrance gives
the Church a way of integrating central forensic aspects of
salvation within the larger framework determined by participatio
Christi and ontological healing. This move by Torrance has profound
ecumenical significance in that it points toward a way of
reconciling some historic Eastern Orthodox concerns with those of
the Western tradition.
