Timothy W. Reardon uncovers the Lukan salvation narrative developed within Acts, and its key themes that include its presentation of time and space, while also being attentive to overcoming a facile compartmentalization of religion and politics. Reardon argues that Luke-Acts offers a complete, holistic, embodied, and theopolitical soteriology, cosmic in scope, that includes both the what and how of salvation.
In contrast to recent arguments for some form of vicarious expiation in Luke-Acts, Reardon instead suggests that Luke-Acts' presentation of salvation - though exhibiting elements of multiple atonement models - noticeably takes a Christus Victor form, using Irenaeus's Christus Victor paradigm in particular as a point of comparison. Throughout this book Reardon repeatedly demonstrates that Lukan soteriology is political, examining Jesus' role as herald of God's kingdom, the salvific space of heaven and the Church, and the mission of salvation and historical recurrence. Rearson concludes that Luke-Acts is a theopolitical salvation unfolding in space, aiming toward the reconciliation of all things.
