Jesus didn't die as a martyr; Jesus died as a voluntary substitute.

Adrian Rogers

Adrian Rogers (1931–2005) war ein US-amerikanischer baptistischer Pastor, Buchautor und langjähriger Leiter der Bellevue Baptist Church in Tennessee. Als führende Gestalt der konservativen Erneuerung in der Southern Baptist Convention stand er für die strikte Irrtumslosigkeit der Bibel, stieß mit seinem kirchenpolitischen Kurs und gesellschaftspolitischen Positionen jedoch auch auf deutliche Kritik. Heutigen Bibellesern begegnet er vor allem durch pointierte, praxisnahe Predigten und Auslegungen, die über sein Medienwerk weltweit verbreitet werden.
