ANSELM (1033-1109 A.D.) ON THE PROPITIATORY NATURE OF THE ATONEMENT

"If the Lord God will judge thee say, 'Lord, I place the death of your Lord Jesus Christ between me and Thy judgment: in no other way do I contend with Thee.' If he says to thee that thou art a sinner, say, 'Lord, I place the death of our Lord Jesus Christ between Thee and my sins'...If he shall say that he is angry with thee, say, 'Lord, I place the death of our Lord Jesus Christ between me and Thy anger.'"
