This is the best and clearest example of why &how Barfh is a Christian?
Did he apply this to himself? Did he take Jesus as his personal savior?

The event of the death of Christ is the execution of the judgment of God, of the gracious God who in the giving of His son in our place, and the lowly obedience of the Son in our place, reconciled the world with Himself, genuinely and definitely affirmed man as His creature in spite of his sin, cried to the heaven, confirmed His faithfulness towards him, and carried through His covenant with him............... Barth (Church Dogmatics, iv.1, p 514)
Words written by one who is involved in the very story for which Christ experienced.
Why no!. Barth was a defacto atheist who loved spending time expounding on the Word of God --- a favorite past-time of atheist, you know. Probably the only atheist in history to be as proficient in the scriptures as he was. OF COURSE HE IS A DISCIPLE.
