Limited Atonement - Part 3
The Calvinistic theory called the “limited atonement” says that Jesus did not die for the non-elect. But the following passages specifically refer to the non-elect (unbelievers, the lost) as being people that Jesus died for …I Timothy 4:10 ... we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.I John 2:2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.Reminder - John Calvin taught that if one of the five TULIP points of his system is proven wrong, then all five points are proven false. They all sink or swim together. So God's statements listed in the last three messages prove all five of Calvin's following positions wrong:- Total depravity- Unconditional election- Limited atonement- Irresistible grace- Preservation/perseverance of the saints (once saved always saved)
