Dr. Brunson's book takes a uniquely imaginative approach to the theological debate among Calvinists regarding the extent of the atonement. Using the geometric metaphors of concentric and synchronic circles to illustrate each chapter, the author demonstrates the "concentricity" or incongruity of general or universal atonement with other Bible doctrines, such as election and predestination; conversely, he proves limited atonement as synchronic and congruent with those doctrines.
