Limited Atonement: The doctrine of Limited Atonement teaches that Christ only died for the elect and that He did not die for all people. This Calvinistic doctrine strikes a blow at the heart of the Gospel (Romans 1:16). Limited atonement can be destroyed by one single verse of Scripture found in 2 Peter 2:1 for Christ even died for false prophets with damnable heresies who were “denying the Lord that bought them”. Jesus is the “Lamb of God that taketh away the sin of the world” (John 1:29) and He died for the sins of believers and unbelievers alike (John 3:14-18; 4:24, 1 John 2:1-2). Jesus is “the Saviour of the world” (1 John 4:14) though many reject Him. Praise God that the atonement was for all humanity and not just for a few SELECTED ELECTED!
