This is question seven. What is the Christus Victor view of the atonement?

Gustaf Aulén in his 1931 Christus Victor: An Historical Study of the Three Main Types of the Idea of the Atonement, presented his Christus Victory which is like the ransom to Satan view but expands the victory of the atonement beyond just Satan to demons and all evil. Aulén defends his view: “Its central theme is the idea of the atonement as a divine conflict and victory; Christ — Christus Victor — fights against and triumphs over the evil powers of the world, the ‘tyrants’ under which mankind is in bondage and suffering, and in him God reconciles the world to himself.”[1]
