383 Words2 Pages

The Cross as a Victory There are several theories of atonement that come along with the idea of salvation.

    This film incorporated many symbolic aspects, such as the lamb. This was not only prevalent in the beginning of the film as the two men hitched a ride in the back of an old pickup with a bunch of lambs, but also was represented in the name of the tavern they stumbled across, “The Slaughtered Lamb.” Not only is this animal referred to as the “lamb of God” and has been discussed about in the book of Revelations in the Bible as an animal that rises to deliver victory after being slain, but the color of its wool represents purity and life. In contrast, the wolf is dark and evil, representing something that lurks deep within our psycho-spiritual reality. With this symbolism, however, the director did a fantastic job at still creating a comical

Yea, by the temporal law they were cut off; and also, by the spiritual law they perish from that which is good, and become miserable forever.6 Wherefore, redemption cometh in and through the Holy Messiah; for he is full of grace and truth.7 Behold, he offerth himself a sacrifice for sin, to answer the ends of the law, unto all those who have a broken heart and a contrite spirit; and unto none else can the ends of the law be answered.

It requires goodness and strong will.
