    - god is not a god of retributive justice, therefore, does not require satisfaction from sinners or someone on their behalf

    - for god to acquire anything more than our love would be contrary to his nature and to punish the innocent would be contrary to his justice

    - jesus was just a man so his death was simply a man's experience in a sinful world

    - jesus's earthly ministry stressed on the need to love and walk with god (michael 6:8, luke 10:27); his death was the ultimate act of his devotion to god

    - this view contends that jesus didn't come to offer a substitutionary sacrifice for sin, but came to provide an example of the kind of dedication that should be characterized in every person's life

    - christ's resurrection confirmed his teachings and promises

    - the importance of jesus's death was that he showed us the perfect kind of love that we should display for god to achieve salvation, to inspire us to reach for god, all is possible (peter 1; 2:21, 1 John; 2:6)
