Expiatist

/ɪkˈspaɪətɪst/ noun

Definition

A person who advocates or practices expiation; one who believes in atonement for sins.

Etymology

From expiate + -ist suffix (one who does or believes in something). This is a rare scholarly or theological term formed relatively recently to describe believers in expiation doctrine.

Kelly Says

You'd be hard-pressed to find this word in common use—it's the kind of technical theological jargon that appears in academic papers about religious practices, showing how every movement gets its own '-ist' label.
