Non-substitutionary atonement jesus work is completing god"s work to do away with alienation and separateness. Sending out the ruler of the world, same language as an exorcism. John 1:29 here is the lamb of god who takes away the sin of the world! (sin = unbelief) Passover lamb is a sign of deliverance more than sacrifice. God is glorified as he is revealed to humanity. Jesus is glorified by finishing his work on earth unique death saying it is finished . Cross is a place where jesus is lifted up ironic dual meaning (glorification and cross: exaltation lifted up and shameful death by crucifixion lifted up.
