On Erasmus's Conception Of Redemption

Erasmus divided sins into imitating sins and sins caused by the lack of primary grace.He proposed two salvation methods for these two sins:God's grace redemption and moral salvation of free will.Among them,according to Erasmus's theory of God and the philosophy of Christ,he thought that grace redemption was sufficient.Through the division of the three graces and the interpretation of the specific redemptive function of grace,the mechanism of grace redemption was constructed,and it was considered that grace salvation plays a major decisive role in the final salvation.Inevitably,grace salvation also has defects in theory and reality.Therefore,he used the moral redemption of free will as a supplement to the redemption of grace.On the one hand,the Bible contains many references to the existence of free will.The inherent consistency of the Bible texts is the biblical basis for free will moral redemption,and morality on the other.Salvation is also a necessary supplement to grace redemption and plays an indispensable role in the rise of moral responsibility in the present world.Through the analysis of Erasmus's concept of free will and his definition of free will,it is believed that the moral redemption of free will is a supplement to grace redemption.There is a limit to moral redemption.Erasmus's concept of salvation,which is mainly based on grace redemption and supplemented by moral redemption,is a concept of redemption of conciliation theory.It has positive constructive meaning in theory,but it has inevitable defects in the operation of reality.
