Roger Olson says if true it is the equivalent of cosmic coercion – EVEN rape! Scripture calls it merciful RESCUE. Through biblical-theological analysis, real world illustrations and rigorous exegesis, this essay UTTERLY dismantles Olson’s outrageous and category errors, showing why his opinion is based on the overuse of one primary metaphor to describe the saving relationship at the expense of multiple others. If Olson’s primary metaphor were applied to the other equally valid ones in scripture – the result would be a perversion of the truth.
