Featured What is the Atonement?

A very large majority of Pastors are preaching that Jesus Atoned for all humans, it's shameful to see so many ignoramus pastors in the pulpits, in my opinion they are not qualified.

Limited Atonement (Particular Redemption)
Limited Atonement is a doctrine offered in answer to the question, "for whose sins did Christ atone?" The Bible teaches that Christ died for those whom God gave him to save (John 17:9). Christ died, indeed, for many people, but not all (Matthew 26:28). Specifically, Christ died for the invisible Church -- the sum total of all those who would ever rightly bear the name "Christian" (Ephesians 5:25).
This doctrine often finds many objections, mostly from those who think that Limited Atonement does damage to evangelism. We have already seen that Christ will not lose any that the father has given to him (John 6:37). Christ's death was not a death of potential atonement for all people. Believing that Jesus' death was a potential, symbolic atonement for anyone who might possibly, in the future, accept him trivializes Christ's act of atonement. Christ died to atone for specific sins of specific sinners. Christ died to make holy the church. He did not atone for all men, because obviously all men are not saved. Evangelism is actually lifted up in this doctrine, for the evangelist may tell his congregation that Christ died for sinners, and that he will not lose any of those for whom he died!

 

Nope, I'm not a Calvinist, now what's your excuse for ignorance of scripture.

 

This topic is mostly directed to ignorant pastors and Lord Lord types who think their free will has saved them, the real topic is the Sovereignty of God.

You know as well as I do, if you asked the majority of preachers in North America if they believe that Christ atoned for all humans, the majority will say yes, they have been poisoned by Pelagianism and have embraced it to protect their free will idol.

 

Thanks, you have just proven my point by saying salvation was dependant on your faith, your faith your work your choice your action your verb, that's salvation by works. That sounds like a very serious problem to me, and not crap as you say.

 

It's wrath or love, and the bible says wrath, unless you think most humans are believing ones. Don't listen to the majority of spineless preachers preaching a false love.

Joh_3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.

 

If you want, you could say, His loving wrath will throw the majority of all mankind into the eternal lake of fire to be tormented.:love2:

 

Yes, crap it is, so crappy that it has polluted the doctrines of the fall of man, the gospel and the Atonement, I would say that's a very serious crappy problem with most preachers.

 

We are going around in circles, Grace to regenerate has to come first, otherwise faith is just an act of man a work a belief a verb an action a decision a belief, and that would be salvation by works.
